Actually I didn't have the parens in there during build time, I renamed it later.  Then I attempted to run the tests.   I'll go re-test with those parens.

So you have parens and spaces in your path, and the fact we use quotes around it doesn't help (with this OpenCL runtime). I know Atom has struggled with this issue too, in Hashcat. There doesn't seem to be a fully portable way to handle this. I believe Atom's current best-effort solution is to chdir to that directory before building instead of trying to use the non-portable -I option. I'm not sure I like to do the same.

The quick and easy solution is to avoid problematic characters in paths.
