} _cvs_modified_entries() doesn't like filenames with spaces.

That's almost certainly because it's calling "builtin stat" and then
parsing the output with the World's Hairiest Parameter Substitution (TM).

Which is pretty silly given that stat can assign directly to an array
without the need to fork a $(...) substitution.

See if this isn't better.  The substitution isn't that much less hairy,
but it doesn't fork and it doesn't depend on splitting on spaces.
