Éric Araujo added the comment:

I’m more inclined to use the proposed patch rather than list2cmdline, given the 
issue linked.

I would not like a fix for this to break people’s setup.py scripts; it would be 
good to know if people work around this bug by monkey-patching the 
_nt_quote_args function, escaping quotes themselves, or something else.

If the proposed patch is the right solution, unit tests for _nt_quote_args 
would be needed, plus a high-level test that builds an extension module with a 
flag like '-DMODULE_VERSION="1.0.5"', so that the windows buildbots can confirm 
this works.
