Spaces in path name

[David S]

Hi,

I get

ERROR: ""C:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.7.0\bin\ant"" does not exist

If I cut the path statement here and paste it next to a windows XP command 
prompt ant is invoked.

The python code here is
    if not os.path.isfile(ANT_CMD):
        error('"%s" does not exist' % ANT_CMD)
