I've committed patches that fix these issues on my own OS X machine,
though it remains to be seen whether polecat and colugos will like
them. It turns out that whatever setup Robert has got with
'/Volumes/High Usage/' is really *not* fully exercising the system
as far as space-containing paths go, because I found bugs in all
active branches when I tried to do builds and installs underneath
'/Users/tgl/foo bar/'. Is it worth setting up a buildfarm critter
to exercise the case on a long-term basis? If we don't, I think
we can expect that it'll break regularly.
(I wouldn't care to bet that the MSVC case works yet, either.)
