I think to make up my mind I'd need a few words about each part of the
changes (with the exception of the test suite changes): why is each of
them needed, and what does it do to fix which part of the original
problem.
I also wonder how come we've succeeded to break quoted file names so
fundamentally -- what change did that, and why did we make it on the
release branch?
If my git bisect is correct, it was commit a1bbc490155b61a634a6d0b165000ce35b93aa35 to fix Bug#29579. So by fixing one bug we introduced another one :(
