It may be that <truc> inserts the symbol corresponding to "truc" when it 
exists (may be, may be not, I remember vaguely that this is the case).

\truc is inserted with the help of make-hybrid

Please try the following two shortcuts

(kbd-map (:mode in-math?) ("space space" (begin (make-hybrid) (insert 
";")  )))

(kbd-map (:mode in-math?) ("space space" (begin (make-hybrid) (insert 
";") (kbd-return) )))

In the first case you should get a "\;", ready for the pressing of the 
Return key (and pressing Return you get the space), in the second you 
should get the space, because the (kbd-return) in the shortcut presses 
the Return key.
