I'm having a problem building NPSR in Windows XP when the path name 
contains spaces.  Changing the path to one without spaces solves the 
problem, but I need to be able to use paths with spaces.  The path below 
contains "Documents and Settings", which is causing the problem seen in 
the output below.  I'm using MozillaBuild 1.3.  Thank you for any help.
