#1828: ghc doesn't properly quote space-containing paths on Windows.
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: guest | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: Compiler | Version: 6.8.1
Severity: normal | Keywords:
Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase:
Architecture: Multiple | Os: Windows
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
1) Install ghc 6.8.1 on Windows XP to "C:\Program Files\ghc\".[[BR]]
2) Run `ghc newton.hs` (any hs file should work here) from your home
directory.
Output :[[BR]]
{{{
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
C:\Program Files\ghc\bin/windres: no resources
}}}
Something somewhere in the compilation process seems to try to run
something in "C:\Program Files\ghc\" but, even though the program it wants
to run has spaces in its path, it doesn't quote it properly.
