I know next to nothing about ancient notation, but whoever wrote
gregorian.ly clearly intended this behaviour as the file contains
the override

\override SpacingSpanner #'packed-spacing = ##t

on line 258, which requests notes to be packed as tightly as 
possible.

This is presumably to enable the usual packed spacing of Gregorian
ligatures when the other facilities in gregorian.ly are used, so it 
is not
a bug.

If you want to use normal spacing simply revert this setting:

\revert Score.SpacingSpanner #'packed-spacing
