Unix ForkExec doesn't work with spaces in binary

[mitchellh]

I have to use ChildProcess to execute a binary with spaces and fork-exec doesn't work, it errors that the binary doesn't exist (when I actually do a file exists check above which says it does).

I tried with PosixSpawn and it works but I'd rather use fork/exec.

Thanks!

Workaround: Wrap the binary in single quotes.

I don't know if the fix is as easy as looking for spaces and doing that, but that works for now.

Just pushed 0.3.7 which should fix this issue.

The problem is with a single argument, we hit this "feature" of Kernel::exec:

If single string is given as the command, it is taken as a command line that is subject to shell expansion before being executed.

Shouldn't happen again.
