Hi Curtis,

I think the correct fix for this would be to write a _quote_args()
method in Module/Build/Platform/Windows.pm .  It's trying to use Unix
shell semantics.  In this case, it shouldn't need to use any quotes at
all, since backslashes are fine in the Windows shell.

I don't have a convenient Windows machine to try out an implementation
on, unfortunately.
