Two options here:
 (1) don't do that, then
 (2) submit a patch to fix things

I suspect (2) will turn out to be somewhere between painful
and impossible, because we hand the absolute path of the
source tree around in the makefiles a fair bit, and make
is notoriously bad at dealing with spaces in filenames.
I could be wrong though, so feel free to have a go at fixing
it if you like.

(I do mac builds in my home directory so the path is something
like /Users/pm215/src/qemu/.)
