Comment(by leif):

 An alternative, perhaps simpler, but "less efficient" test for spaces
 would be:
 {{{
 #!sh
     [ `echo "X${SAGE_ROOT}X" | wc -w` -ne 1 ]
 }}}
 (This one catches leading and trailing blanks, too, like the shell
 function in the patch when called properly. But we usually have leading
 and trailing slashs/path separators in {{{$SAGE_ROOT}}} anyway.)
