ninja install fails if build directory has a space in the pathname

Title pretty much says it all: "ninja install" will fail if the build directory has a space in its pathname.

are there any error messages? what platform are you building on? I tried on linux and macOS, ninja works fine with spaces in build directory path.

Debian stable. It compiles fine, but install fails with a series of "that file doesn't exist" errors due to the space in the pathname.
