I cannot possibly be the first person to report this. If tex, latex, etc, are installed in the default place, which is "somedrive:/Program Files/...", the space between Program and Files pretty well trashes the entire configuration.
I do have a Cygwin-created "symbolic link" from ProgramFiles to Program Files, but that only works with stuff that is playing the Cygwin game, and apparently perl (at least the version I happen to be using) does not play that game. Suggestions? How hard is it to move a previously installed TeX installation? I'm relatively handy with system settings and registry entries. There's also the meta-bug of writing the configuration itself in a write-only language like perl, especially since most of the perl documentation (e.g., the Wall/Christiansen/Schwartz book) is also write-only.
