Description
For symbols along roads, I set the `symbol-spacing` to `5000`, however the symbols seems still too close to each other as shown below:
Note the `M-32-W` symbol, there are four repeated label in a single tile.
I am not sure if this is a bug?
BTW, the screenshot is taken under windows chrome 60 x64 with mapbox-gl-js 0.39.1

Research direction
Start by reproducing the road-symbol case with symbol-spacing set to 5000 in mapbox-gl-js 0.39.1, using the screenshot and environment details as the reference. Compare the resulting label spacing across the tile and define the expected behavior; done means the symbols are spaced consistently as intended.
