Andrei I believe he's referring to my PR. The issue described by the
description of this bug was fixed (having '+' signs in the path), however,
based on the title I'm not sure it fixed everything.  If there are any other
characters in the path that would cause optlink to fail I can take a look.  Do
you know of any more cases to test?

Also, it is a workaround because optlink now ignores any paths containing a '+'
character.  I believe that making optlink accept paths with '+' character may
be a much bigger change.  I didn't want my first contribution to optlink to be
too big so I opted for the workaround (which was around 15 lines of code). 
Maybe I'll spend some time on this problem later.  If you have any more dire
issues post them here.
