Looks good to me.
It might be more complicated to avoid possible issues with nested quotes more generally. But this is probably better in the large majority of cases than what we currently do.

I pushed your patch with minor changes to the default branch:
https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/265930c2158b

If issues for some corner cases should arise, we can still deal with them then imho.

Marking as ready for test.

If the include paths or libraries contain spaces, mkoctfile does not escape or quote them.

Using the io package as an example since it just contains a basic Makefile:


    octave 3> pkg install -verbose -forge io
    mkdir (C:\Users\johnd\AppData\Local\Temp\oct-upWcic)
    untar (C:\Users\johnd\AppData\Local\Temp\io-2.6.4-8xuyXe.tar.gz, C:\Users\johnd\AppData\Local\Temp\oct-upWcic)
    make: Entering directory '/tmp/oct-upWcic/io-2.6.4/src'
    C:/Users/johnd/AppData/Local/Programs/GNU\ Octave/Octave-9.0.0/mingw64/bin/mkoctfile-9.0.0.exe --verbose csvexplode.cc
    g++ -c -IC:\Users\johnd\AppData\Local\Programs\GNU Octave\Octave-9.0.0\mingw64/include  -I"C:\Users\johnd\AppData\Local\Programs\GNU Octave\Octave-9.0.0\mingw64\include\octave-9.0.0\octave\.." -I"C:\Users\johnd\AppData\Local\Programs\GNU Octave\Octave-9.0.0\mingw64\include\octave-9.0.0\octave" -I"C:\Users\johnd\AppData\Local\Programs\GNU Octave\Octave-9.0.0\mingw64\include"  -pthread -fopenmp -g -O2    csvexplode.cc -o C:\Users\johnd\AppData\Local\Temp/oct-MjCRUd.o
    g++: warning: Octave\Octave-9.0.0\mingw64/include: linker input file unused because linking not done
    g++: error: Octave\Octave-9.0.0\mingw64/include: linker input file not found: No such file or directory
    make: *** [Makefile:6: csvexplode.oct] Error 1
    make: Leaving directory '/tmp/oct-upWcic/io-2.6.4/src'
    error: pkg: error running 'make' for the io package

If the function that replaces the prefix value adds quotes for the replaces prefix if it has spaces, then the io package installs ok
