to reproduce:

cd /tmp
mkdir "j (1)"
cd "j (1)"
git clone --recursive https://github.com/tikv/jemallocator
cd jemallocator/jemalloc-sys
cargo build

result:

Issue exists on previous versions of crate as well.

It seems to be an issue of jemalloc itself. You may want to send the issue to https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc.
