 Replying to [comment:9 Rufflewind]:

 > What is the reason for quoting `compiler.config`?

 Copy pasting from the comments:
 {{{
 # Wrap non-empty program paths in quotes, because they may contain spaces.
 Do
 # it here, so we don't have to (and don't forget to do it) in the .T test
 # scripts (search for '{compiler}' or '{hpc}'). This may or may not be a
 good
 # idea.
 }}}
