           Summary: Cannot Compile PCRE 7.7 When (Source) Path Contains
                    Spaces
           Product: PCRE
           Version: N/A
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: bug
          Priority: medium
         Component: Code
        AssignedTo: ph10@???
        ReportedBy: catapuit2000-pcre@???

When the path of the source archive contains spaces, the compile with "make"
fails:

ar cru .libs/libpcrecpp.a pcrecpp.o pcre_scanner.o pcre_stringpiece.o
ranlib .libs/libpcrecpp.a
creating libpcrecpp.la
sed: Software/PCRE/pcre-7.7/libpcre.la: No such file or directory
libtool: link: `Software/PCRE/pcre-7.7/libpcre.la' is not a valid libtool
archive
make[1]: *** [libpcrecpp.la] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

(The path is actually "/Users/Shared/Mac Software/PCRE/pcre-7.7/libpcre.la")

Installation to a path containing spaces could be affected as well though I did
not test that.

Everything works fine if the path does not contain any spaces.

Tested on Mac OS X 10.5.3.
