Description:
------------
On trying to build 5.0.0 under OSX, I foolishly expanded 
the tarball into a directory with embedded spaces in the 
name (/Users/simon/Desktop/php stuff/).

Configure barfed, throwing quite a few lines similar to:

> checking size of char *... 4
> cat: /Users/simon/Desktop/php: No such file or 
directory
> cat: stuff/php-5.0.0/ext/sqlite/libsqlite/VERSION: No 
such file or directory
> sed: /Users/simon/Desktop/php: No such file or 
directory
> sed: stuff/php-5.0.0/ext/sqlite/libsqlite/src/
sqlite.h.in: No such file or directory
> checking for usleep... (cached) yes
 
etc.

These were thrown as warnings, but result in a configure 
failure - the resulting tree is unbuildable.  configure 
parameters are irrelevant, even a bare `./configure` 
causes the problem.

A simple change of the directory name to /Users/simon/
Desktop/phpstuff/ makes everything good.

I suspect that there is an issue with missing quoting 
somewhere in the configure script

Regards

Simon
