I haven't used the MKS toolkit, but here's an interesting test that might shed light:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
DIR=/tmp/test
rm -rf $DIR;  mkdir -p $DIR;  cd $DIR  ||  exit 1
touch "ab cd" "ef gh" "ij kl"

a=()
for f in *; do
    a[${#a[@]}]="$f"
done

for f in "${a[@]}"; do
    echo "$f"
done

These are the results I get when I run it:
Code:
ab cd
ef gh
ij kl

get_included_files

GET_INCLUDED_FILES(3)							 1						     GET_INCLUDED_FILES(3)

get_included_files - Returns an array with the names of included or required files

SYNOPSIS

       array get_included_files (void  )

DESCRIPTION

	Gets the names of all files that have been included using include(3), include_once(3), require(3) or require_once(3).

RETURN VALUES

	Returns an array of the names of all files.

	The  script  originally called is considered an "included file," so it will be listed together with the files referenced by include(3) and
       family.

	Files that are included or required multiple times only show up once in the returned array.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      get_included_files(3) example

	      <?php
	      // This file is abc.php

	      include 'test1.php';
	      include_once 'test2.php';
	      require 'test3.php';
	      require_once 'test4.php';

	      $included_files = get_included_files();

	      foreach ($included_files as $filename) {
		  echo "$filename
";
	      }

	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      abc.php
	      test1.php
	      test2.php
	      test3.php
	      test4.php

NOTES

       Note
