How do the spaces get in the name of the semantic-action file? When
liblouisutdml was written it never occured to me that a semantic-action
filename might have spaces. Wouldn't it be simpler to just avoid them?
Handling them would require some code changes, and the name of the file
would have to be enclosed in quotation marks.
