Building BIND 9.17.11
(https://downloads.isc.org/isc/bind9/9.17.11/bind-9.17.11.tar.xz) in directory
with space (' ') or parenthesis fails to build
(https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/issues/2572) on Fedora 33:

$ ./configure && make -j12

libtool:   error: 'neck/bind-9.17.11/lib/isc/libisc.la' is not a valid libtool
archive
make[4]: *** [Makefile:627: libisccc.la] Error 1

If parenthesis is in the path it fails in the configure step:

$ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
./configure: eval: line 2834: syntax error near unexpected token `('
./configure: eval: line 2834: `${SHELL}
/home/newman/break(1)neck/bind-9.17.11/missing --is-lightweight'

The BIND9 tarball is build with "make dist" on a host with Debian 10 "Buster".
I build the tarball on Fedora 33 with Autoconf 2.71 but no luck in any of
these cases.
