this shouldn't be needed. I just tested with with 2.3.5 and the following
worked fine without any changes:

ecasound -i foo\ bar.ogg -o alsa
ecasound -i "foo bar.ogg" -o alsa
ecasound -i "foo bar\"in quotes\".ogg" -o alsa

Note that all quoting above is interpreted by the shell and never seen by
ecasound.

I did find one bug:

ecasound -i rtnull -o foo\ bar.ogg

This is fixed in CVS and will be included to 2.3.6/2.4.0.

This is not needed as ecasound calls ogg123 via exec() so shell is
not involved (no meta-char expanding).
