Bug Description

Hi,
POTFILES.in seems to not support files with a space in the pathname:

[azmeuk@herbi ~/dev/denemo/po]$ LANG=en make update-po
make denemo.pot
make[1]: Entering directory `xxxxx/po'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx', needed by `xxxxxxxxxxxx.pot'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `xxxxxx/po'
make: *** [update-po] Error 2
[azmeuk@herbi ~/dev/denemo/po]$

If I escape spaces with \ I get this:
can't open xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: No such file or directory at /usr/bin/intltool-extract line 212.
This error message appears again and again, and I have to kill the process.

Is there something I can do to get it work without renaming my files ?
