Passing to jeff, not much I can do with this either.

I'll need someone on a Windows
machine to attack this one.  On
Unix, you cannot even build Tcl
when there are spaces in the
path name.  (Bug 553544).

On the contrary, these look like errors
in the tests themselves.

Those tests explicitly remove *non-space*
characters from the pathname for matching,
which is of course broken when the paths
do include spaces.

These are pseudo-errors, and not in the "basic" category -
more like "file system".

Only the file names in the error message differ from the
expected: they are rooted names "C:\dir1\dir2\fileName"
where "fileName" alone was expected.

Reducing priority, and assigning to Andreas (he might have a
clue?)
