This patch corrects a command parsing bug in ExternalParser.cc. The
single argument StringList constructor only considers a tab to be a
valid separator. As such a space between a command and argument (e.g.
"convert.pl -x") is not treated as a separator, and the string is not
split properly. This results in execv calling a command that generally
doesn't exist (e.g. "convert.pl -x" rather than convert.pl).
