We already did that some time ago, if you search -patches passim. you'll
find I did that and found an even bigger problem...

When directory names contain spaces the following kinda breaks...

deplibs="-L/path/to/directory with/spaces in/its filename -lfoo -lbar"
for deplib in $deplibs...


ie most of Libtool breaks.  I figured at that point we aught to just
flat out not support spaces in directory names and simply error if we
see them.
