Hi,

Consider the following source file

\edef\x{\jobname}
\show\x

Run it with pdftex, you get:

> \x=macro:
->"foo bar".

With luatex (0.40):

> \x=macro:
->foo bar.

This is a problem eg when using LaTeX when it tries to \input\jobname.aux.

Regardless of any particular format, there is a consistency problem with pdftex,
which should be fixed, imo by making luatex behave the same as pdftex, namely
quote the file name in \jobname.

Thanks,
Manuel.
