I probably should have given more detail about the program I was using
which invoked the mime handling and triggered the problem with spaces
(bug #562959).  It might have been mc (Midnight Commander), pressing
enter on a image file, but I'm not entirely certain. I tried just now
downgrading to imagemagick/7:6.5.8.3-1 and displaying via
        run-mailcap "test with spaces.jpeg"
or	run-mailcap test\ with\ spaces.jpg
but I can't seem to reproduce the problem at the moment, I'm sorry. 
By that test, image/jpeg; display 'jpeg:%s' seems to be working now.  

Maybe it's best now to apply the new patch for bug #619667, and I'll
reopen #562959 if I find the problem again, giving more detail to
reproduce the bug?
