Title:
  Patch cannot handle spaces in filenames

Status in “patch” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When there are spaces in a filename in a patch file, quilt is unable
  to properly apply the patch. See this patch file example:

  <rest of patch file>

  The patch is applied on 'a/foo' instead of 'a/foo bar/file.txt'
