bug#22615: 11.89.1; File Not found error...

[gojjoe]

Hi Mosè,

Thank you very much for your interest in this. Unfortunately 
I've never managed to pinpoint where the spaces are creating 
the problem; as you say, paths with spaces don't cause 
problems in other settings handled by 'start-process'... 
That's also why I've never submitted this bug. Could it be 
the function that retrieves the GS path? I'll take a look 
once more and let you know (it'll take a couple of days).

Cheers!
J
