I too have spaces in my include path, and it works ok. I thought I had to 
surround the path with "-signs, but for the SET commands they created 
trouble. 

So I run:

ruby extconf.rb -with-ruby-include="C:\ruby\src\ruby-1.8.2;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include;"

set INCLUDE=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include;
set LIB=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\lib;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Lib
