[JDEV] Re: problem with spool directory

[beej at bryanland.com]

I had the same problem.  Turns out something was prepending whitespace
(a linefeed, some spaces) to the spool directory name. I couldn't find
what, but I added a routine to xdb_file.c that strips whitespace from
the spool directory name. That fixed the problem.
