Sure, file a bug. As a work-around you can just set GEM_PATH to be some quoted 
path:

set GEM_PATH="C:\Program Files\IronRuby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8"

But keep in mind this will install all gems to that location (even gems 
installed through MRI), so set it only when using IronRuby.

Subject: [Ironruby-core] igem install issues when the ironruby install folder 
has spaces ?

Hi,

I had unpacked IronRuby 0.6 under C:\Program Files\IronRuby and got the 
following error when running igem install rspec:

ERROR:  While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
    Caractères non conformes dans le chemin d'accès. (<= means invalid 
characters in path)

Moving the install to c:\IronRuby allowed me to install the gem.

I guess there is some quoting missing somewhere.

should I file a codeplex issue for that ?
