GNAT (like all software) has issues and limitations but it take the
position that because you can't install it to a directory with a space
in the name that you must then think it has other serious bugs is not
really reasonable.
Actually, the install in directory with spaces in the name is pretty
much a windows convention. Until very recently it was possible to blue
screen windows by simply doing some console output that included a few
tabs and backspaces. "If it has problems like that I dont want to think
about other that it also can have."
