Running make locally fails - space in dir name

On a Mac (but with "make" correctly installed)

This is all very messy (and leaves several folders behind as it fails), but it looks like the root cause is a shell command that fails to handle a directory called "My Drive" somewhere up the tree.

See sio/Makefile.venv#5

@yaronf, I took a look at this. I've made some changes that mean that relative paths are used in makefiles. That made the ruby installation a massive pain, but I think that I have successfully sorted out most of the kinks. Let me know if this backfires.

@martinthomson Works like magic, thanks!

[martinthomson]

That's because it is :) I'm happy that it worked out.
