According to Paul Brannan on 1/20/2008 7:18 AM:

Thanks for the report.  This has already been fixed in autoconf and
automake CVS, but is a known problem with all released versions of
autotools, and is likely to be a problem with various packages even when
newer autotools are available.  The workaround is to avoid directory names
with spaces.
