OK, I've now quoted most of the programs we run from make variables, so
tools used when building GHC installed in paths containing spaces should
work fine.
The exceptions are:
LN_S
EXECUTABLE_FILE
CPP
AR
INSTALL_*
(as they include arguments in their definition. We could separate them
into FOO and FOO_OPTS)
and MAKE, which is magic.
It might even be possible to build GHC in a directory containing spaces;
we had to avoid using full paths, because make got confused by paths
containing a colon (c:/...).
Thanks
Ian
