Nowhere, so call it an implementation issue if you like. However, it
has never been considered the brightest idea to use spaces in file
names because they may break things unexpectedly as they do here. You
will not find spaces in the file names of the binary executables in
/usr/bin or in the file names of the libraries in /usr/lib or in the
icon names of standard icon themes.
