It's not that easy. The make grammar uses whitespace in a way that doesn't allow easy workarounds. Whoever designed it originally clearly didn't conceive the idea that filenames could contain spaces. Based on some experiments I did a few years ago, I would go as far as saying that there is no workable, practical workaround unless we modify GNU make itself in some way. :-( And we could modify GNU make itself :-), but figuring out exactly what to do, and then doing it, is a project in itself ... and it doesn't seem that urgent. Anyhow, if you think it's really urgent and important, let me know.
