build: can't build in a path that has a space in it

[refack]

After trying to solve this in #11217 I gave up. It's deeper rooted and it's in the icu tooling, sorry @srl295.

since we can't add a /test/know_issues/ for this I'd rather keep this one open at least until it's mitigated significantly.
Arbitrary exit criteria - should work on:

• macOS
• Ubuntu
• Windows

As a native Hebrew speaker (which is even RTL), I just wanna say internationalization is stupid! 😝

@refack See #11713 (comment), I’m closing this too. Also, again, please try to be respectful of other’s work and try to keep unstructured critique to a minimum, even if you tag it as a joke/“cynicism”.

It's the old me :(

@srl295 if you read the old comment above. I meant no disrespect to you or the ICU project.
What I did mean was that i10n is hard and frustrating, and something you forget the goal, which is basically accessibility.

P.S. I even have a start-up in the field https://www.bablic.com/

@addaleax I'm gonna reopen and self assign. I think I can solve this.
