[tex-live] xindy with "-I xindy" broke with the latest update on linux

[Michael Brade]

Hi,

took me a while to figure this one out: makeglossaries broke lately, the reason 
being that "xindy -I xindy ..." fails with something like

command: /usr/local/texlive/bin/x86_64-linux/xindy.run -M 
/usr/local/texlive/bin/x86_64-linux/xindy.mem -E iso-8859-1 -x (progn
  (searchpath 
".:/usr/local/texlive/texmf/xindy/modules:/usr/local/texlive/texmf/xindy/modules/base")
  (xindy:startup
    :idxstyle "/tmp/SO6I_sq8ua"
    :rawindex /tmp/6qdn8OM9Y7
    :output "test.ind"
    :logfile "test.ilg"
    
    :trace-level 3)
  (exit))

*** - PROGN: variable /TMP/6QDN8OM9Y7 has no value

I.e., the /tmp-path is uppercased. Turned out that the missing quotes around 
the filename were the reason, this patch did it for me:

Used to work all the time, so something must have broken it.

cheers,
