[armedbear-devel] patches for bug with spaces in directory for abcl-0.23.0

Attached are patches that enable pathnames created with the "file" 
scheme to contain #\Space characters.  The causes of this a little 
deeper, involving a mistaken use of URL encoding rules suitable for HTML 
forms rather than the more proper URI encoding rules.

The patches work well under UNIX (actually OS X), but run into problems 
on Windows.

Comments and feedback on this direction solicited.

The plan would be to release an abcl-0.23.1 sometime in the next few 
days, once the patches have had some independent testing.
