Hello Gabor! In Windows default place for programs is "C:\Program Files\Program_name". "C:\Program Files" contains whitespace. Installing of all programs in different places is inconvinient. For example people don't raise an objection when UNIX-based operation systems require install programs in /usr/local/bin. I understand why you don't want to change this behavior, but I've only found same path in Makefile.in So if you agree to support "whitespaces in paths" I can change build scripts for it :-) Regards, Sveta.

Hello! When I tried to build copy of manual using configure option --with-php="path with whitespaces", I got error. In attached diff patch, allows use whitespaces in paths. Regards, Sveta.
What does a space char do in a path? :) Seriosly, this path is used elsewhere in the build system, and I think it is not "as easy" as "fixing" only configure.in. You'd better follow our instructions and not put PHP into a path with spaces in it IMHO. Gabor
