[Scons-dev] TEMPFILE spaces bug: your thoughts requested

[Gary Oberbrunner]

Check out http://scons.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1705.  It's
possible for the TEMPFILE logic to get confused if the command has
spaces in its path.  The proposed solution in the bug goes a bit
beyond that, introducing a new kind of variable substition: $"FOO"
(i.e. with quotes around it).  The semantics are, if I understand the
patch, that it gets one level of substitution but no more.

Question for you all: does this seem like a good enhancement?  Any
simpler ways to fix the actual bug you can think of?  If we do this,
I'd have to write tests and doc which I'm happy to do but want to
spend the time most effectively.
