Description
I have an issue where I have spaces in a folder name that I cannot change (another context demands this and I don't have control over it). Emscripten compilation fails due to this.

Research direction
Start by reproducing an Emscripten compilation on OSX with the project located in a folder whose name contains spaces. Trace the compilation command and path handling to identify where the spaced path is rejected. Done means the same compilation succeeds without requiring the folder to be renamed.
