 And THAT was the point of the original post - that README.txt should
 probably also mention this issue for downloads, since he downloaded a
 *binary*.

 Anyway, I'm glad to see this wasn't a platform-specific issue.  Probably
 this ticket should get closed by fixing the manual and adding the error
 messages, as it were, and then one could open a sage-wishlist milestone
 ticket for supporting spaces in the path.  (The error message may also
 want to say that certain Sage components would fail otherwise? Or would
 that be too long?)
