Mark,

My apologies for being a day late, got working on some other things.
So here's the scoop as it relates to the issue at hand:

- If you run rt.bat from the trunk as-is and place it in a path that 
contains an empty space, you receive the error outlined in 
resultwithspace.txt.

- If you run rt.bat from the trunk as-is and place it in a path that 
does not contain an empty space, you receive no errors as outlined in 
resultwithoutspace.txt.

- If you run rt.bat with the patch, on Windows XP, you receive no errors 
as outlined in resultafterpatch.txt.

The patch is attached.  Probably my biggest question now is the use of 
GetVersion as opposed to GetVersionEx. According to the MSDN, it doesn't 
appear to be all that undesirable:

Your thoughts?
