VPATH for directories with spaces

Hi,

 I'm currently doing a porting of one of my Windows
projects for Linux. It is C++ project. This project's
sources are structured to directories, that have
blanks in their names.  Since there're quite a few
source files there I don't want to enumerate them all
explicitly, but to make use of VPATH variable in GNU
Make makefile.
 
 The problem I've encountered is that I failed to
configure VPATH so that it  "understand" directories
names with blanks, using just ':' as separators. Any
combination of  quotation marks (both " and ') makes
VPATH contents totally invalid. 

  Does anyone know about the solution of this problem
or the fact that this is GNU Make "feature" indeed.
