[Bug 42621] kernel FTBFS if there is a space in the path

Public bug reported:

Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
When building the kernel if there is a space " " in the path the build
fails. Below is example output. (don't ask about the "Cobol" its scary
enough as it is :-/). The build that FTBFS was performed before any
kernel modifications were made. The issue is likely an unquoted path
string somewhere. The real path name is: "~/projects/Cobol
Files/locks/kernel_mod/linux-source-2.6.15-2.6.15" which as you can see
below gets borked b/c of the space. Once the space was removed from the
path the build worked just fine.
