CMake works with spaces in directory names and file names, but in some places, quotes or escaping is required. On the vast majority of our nightly dashboard submissions, both the source tree and the build tree have a space in the path name. So: in general, CMake handles spaces in filenames, as long as all the underlying build tools also handle them. If you run into a specific problem, the best thing to do is to ask on the mailing list here, just like you did.
