I posted a thread about this a couple of weeks ago; whilst fonts with  
spaces in are fine in "set term", in a label ("{/FontName}") spaces aren't  
allowed as the enhanced parser doesn't call the routine to convert hyphens  
to spaces (and turn Bold and Italic to atributes). I haven't had the time  
to walk through the source and work out what IS called, though. (Getting  
it to substitute for spaces is relatively trivial, as is making it allow  
hyphens by choosing a different substitution character; getting the  
bold/italic attributes isn't though since the cairo functions aren't  
accessible from the enhanced parser.)
