    Description

      When compiling a project with an executable that has spaces in its path, a build failure is encountered. This can be reproduced by following the exact example given on the Maven Compiler Plugin home page (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/examples/compile-using-different-jdk.html)

      This seems to be already mentioned in MCOMPILER-30 (which is closed) but there is a comment after it was closed stating it still doesn't work.

      One potential solution I have found is to use version 1.5.1 of plexus-utils - should this be updated in the maven-compiler-plugin's pom or is there a better solution?
