Minimal test-case on WinXP:
test.d:
void main() { }
$ set PATH=D:\DMD\dmd2\windows\bin;C:\Fake+-Dir
$ dmd -g test.d
OPTLINK (R) for Win32 Release 8.00.12

OPTLINK : Error 118: Filename Expected
Path=D:\DMD\dmd2\windows\bin;C:\Fake+-Dir
^
--- errorlevel 1
GTK3 by default installs to C:\Program Files\GTK+-Bundle-3.4.2\bin, which breaks Optlink when compiling with -g.

Try enclosing the path in " ".

Doesn't help.

Appears to work only if PATH is set to something that has absolutely no spaces in it, regardless of speech marks or quotes

The first example doesn't have any spaces in it.

The problem is the plus sign.
