[Haskell-cafe] Cabal files on Windows

Hello,

Can anyone point me to a method for including path names with spaces
in a cabal file?  I would like to add a line similar to the following:
include-dirs:  C:\Program Files\program\include
and of course a corresponding library as well.

I've tried various methods of escaping the space and quoting, and
nothing seems to work.  Is this possible at all?  I'm using
Cabal-1.2.4.0 on Windows.  I've tried running with a Windows shell and
MSYS bash, with the same results.

Thanks,
John Lato
