I'm using version 2.2.0, and I also more or less discovered the space
issue when I changed the last name to enclose it in quotation marks
and made the space explicit like so "Commercial Value".  Then I got
reasonable responses.

(I can't believe that I, a die-hard Linux user, ever made a subversion
branch with a space in its name--I blame it on smartsvn which made it
too easy!  I'm going to rename it...)

Thanks, Jelmer!
