This was due to a space in the orig tarball permissions:
-rw-r--r-- dowling/ANT\Domain Users 667 2015-09-09 18:32 guzzle_sphinx_theme-0.7.11/setup.py
Our call to split (ie.):
($perm,$ownership,$size,$date,$time,$name)=split(' ', $line, 6);
... then sets $ownership to "dowling/ANT\Domain" and $size to "Users".
There is no foolproof fix here as long as we are still relying on the
output of tar; even if we allow arbitrary spaces here, you can still
"inject" date-like strings into the filename. Or maybe we could use
tar's --quoting-style argument...
