Maybe you should ask mintty developers to look into this? No one
never asked Emacs to support mintty on Windows. But then almost no
one uses the -nw sessions on Windows (why would you want to?).

Yes. Feel free to suggest a patch for configure.ac that would quote
the names. Better yet, don't build Emacs inside directories with
whitespace in their names ;-)
