I'm not sure what's the actual system, but it's for sure not MSVC. This looks
like mingw or cygwin. Anyway, I don't think the space in file name would be a
problem as there's no space if you look at the paths from MSYS or cygwin
shell point of view. I don't have any idea about what's going on, the error
message is not very explicit.
