Dear Octave team,

Since the alpha release of 6.0.90, I have encountered the following problems
when I am trying to install a forge package on both win 7 and 10 64 bits
systems as shown below. This problem can be solved by changing the default
install location (e.g. C:\Program Files\GNU Octave\Octave-6.0.92) to a
location without any blank space (I tried C:\Octave-6.0.92 and there is no
problem while installing a forge package). Since the version 6 of Octave
started to use system default location for installation as stated in the
welcome page (Octave-6.0.92/README.html). I would suggest anyone could kindly
fix this problem.  

Thank you very much!
