[issue4508] distutils compiler not handling spaces in path to output/src files

[C. E. Ball]

C. E. Ball <ceball at users.sf.net> added the comment:

I also found this bug while using SciPy's weave on Windows XP to compile
some inline c/c++ code.

Thorney's distutils_compiler_quoting.patch fixed the problem for me.


Here is the relevant part of the traceback (I hope):
"""
Found executable C:\Program Files\Topographica\python_topo\mingw\bin\g++.exe
