Windows executables built with pp 1.37 split any arguments containing whitespace.
The bug can be seen with a one-line script: print join(':', @ARGV)
Packed with pp 1.36, `a.exe "foo bar"` prints "foo bar".
Packed with pp 1.37, `a.exe "foo bar"` prints "foo:bar".
Encountered on Windows 7 under Strawberry perl 5.24 and 5.26.
