[XeTeX] spaces in filenames

[William Adams]

Was there ever a resolution on this?

\jobname now works to stick into a fontspec \setFOOfont macro, but  
unfortunately, since most font names include spaces, LaTeX doesn't  
handle things well and one gets a complaint about no \begin{document}  
and the last part of the filename w/ an appended ``.aux'' gets  
typeset twice (if one is using the documentclass article, probably w/  
others too).

One also gets a new .tex file created w/ the first word in the name  
used, e.g., xelatexing Hoefler Text.tex gets one a new  
``Hoefler.tex'' file.

minimal example:

%!TEX TS-program = xelatex
%!TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode
\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}
A
\end{document}

I'm working around it by using \documentclass{minimal} and  
\nonstopmode, but....
