Summary:                    Quotes in add_definitions causes bad command
generation
Description: 
add_definitions(-DFOO="bar")
add_definitions(-Dblah="barf barf")

Will result in:

set(nvcc_flags "-DFOO="bar";-Dblah="barf barf"") which has the quotes all wrong.
 What I believe needs to be done is to change run_nvcc.cmake to not have the
quotes around the definition:

set(nvcc_flags "@nvcc_flags@")

to

set(nvcc_flags @nvcc_flags@)

This probably also means that I'll need to revisit the use of " in all of the
variables and make sure that I'm not using where I don't need it.
