Space in the path / kdevelop 3.0.4

[Andy Cedilnik]

Hi Fred,

CMake has support for spaces in paths from the ground up, so we do not
have any problem. Actually most of our testing systems have spaces in
paths.

About the KDevelop problem, putting quotes around the path will solve
the problem. Also, in CMake we have pretty good implementation of method
that escapes spaces.
