+/* Insert backslash before spaces in ORIG (usually a file path), to 
+   avoid being broken by spec parser.
+
+   This function is needed as do_spec_1 treats white space (' ' and '\t')
+   as the end of an argument. But in case of -plugin /usr/gcc install/xxx.so,
+   the file name should be treated as a single argument rather than being
+   broken into multiple. Solution is to insert '\\' before the space in a 
+   file name.
+   
+   This function converts and only converts all occurrence of ' ' 
+   to '\\' + ' ' and '\t' to '\\' + '\t'.  For example:
+   "a b"  -> "a\\ b"
+   "a  b" -> "a\\ \\ b"
+   "a\tb" -> "a\\\tb"
+   "a\\ b" -> "a\\\\ b"
+
+   orig: input null-terminating string that was allocated by xalloc. The
+   memory it points to might be freed in this function. Behavior undefined
+   if ORIG wasn't xalloced or was freed already at entry.
+
+   Return: ORIG if no conversion needed. Otherwise a newly allocated string
+   that was converted from ORIG.  */
