Follow-up Comment #4:

@Andreas: Your patch is correct.  Please apply it.

In addition, could you take a look at the related functions of gzip, bzip2,
and tar?  They break down in a similar manner when there is a space in the
input.

tar.m can use the exact same fix since it has the syntax:


cmd = ... sprintf (...);


gzip and bzip2 both rely on the private function __xzip__.m, but check line
73.  The fix below seems to work there as well.


cmd = sprintf (commandtemplate, sprintf (' "%s"', fnames{:}));
