handling embedded spaces in output from ghc -M]

[Sigbjorn Finne]

Hi,

you're making a mountain out of a molehill; couple of
workarounds spring to mind:

* transform the -i path you feed to GHC -M, i.e., something
   like

    ghc -M .... -i`cygpath -w -s "c:\Program Files\GreenCard"`/lib/ghc

* post-process the generated dependencies file to insert the double
   quotes and/or escape the spaces yourself.
