1927	Parrot doesn't build with spaces in directory name	whiteknight	jkeenan	"I just tried building a fresh checkout of Parrot on Win32 in a directory with spaces in the name ""C:/Documents and Settings/awhitworth/..."". In the makefile and in config_lib.pir, this was mangled to ""C:/Documents\ and\ Settings/awhitworth"", which failed. In the config PMC, this was unescaped to ""C:/Documents\\ and\\ Settings/awhitworth"", which looks even worse.

Even after hand-editing the makefile and the config_lib.pir text, the build still does not complete because of issues finding include files.

When I copied my build directory to a path without spaces (""C:/Parrot""), it builds without issue."	bug	closed	critical	3.0	build	master	high	fixed	win32			applied	all
