Currently makepkg takes the commandline arguments, assigns them to a variable and passes that variable to the next makepkg call (within fakeroot). Use a comination of quotes and arrays in this process to ensure any arguments passed within quotes and containing spaces stay as a single argument during the second makepkg call. Thanks to Dan for figuring out how to get this working.
