I know absolutely nothing about MakeMaker, but splitting spaces in a line of linker flags can't be right. What if it had been -L  /some/directory -l  cl   -l  pcre ?

Subject: [CWB] [PATCH] Fix CWB-CL Makefile

Hello

Makefile.PL on CWB-CL fails when cwb-config returns the glib-config command:

[ambs at search CWB-CL]$ cwb-config -L
-L/share/apps/amalandro/lib -lcl -lm -lpcre `pkg-config --libs glib-2.0`

because ExtUtils::MakeMaker tries to split that string by spaces, and 
gets messy.

This patch fixes it into the Makefile.PL code.

I do *not* think this is the correct fix (the fix should be done in CWB 
itself making it to print a clear line with cwb-config) but this makes 
CWB-CL to work with current SVN CWB version.

Therefore, My suggestion is: apply this patch, and remove it (it is just 
a line) when CWB gets fixed :)

Cheers
Alberto
