Bug: cygport fails when the working directory pathname contains spaces


Hi folks,

Consider this command line transcript:
--------------------------------------
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 hostname 1.7.1(0.218/5/3) 2009-12-07 11:48 i686 Cygwin

$ cygcheck -c cygport
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
cygport              0.9.80-1       OK

$ pwd
/home/steve/My Documents/bglibs

$ ls
bglibs-1.106-1.cygport

$ cygport bglibs-1.106-1.cygport download
/usr/bin/cygport: line 444: [: /home/steve/My: binary operator expected
/usr/bin/cygport: line 450: /home/steve/My: No such file or directory

--------------------------------------
Workaround: Move the working dir to a path not containing spaces.

Best regards,
-SM
