 If the slave directory has spaces in it, BB gets completely confused if
 following http://trac.buildbot.net/wiki/RunningBuildbotOnWindows

 It appears that the directory gets broken up on space boundaries, and if
 you explicitly add double-quotes to prevent that, the entire string
 (including quotes) is interpreted as a path _relative_ to buildbot's
 installation in site-packages/

 That wiki page should include 2 prominent warnings about this pitfall
 until the actual problem is fixed.
