Thanks. I forgot about the need for fnameescape().

BufNew doesn't seem to be needed to make this apply to the quickfix
list. When a quickfix list is created, a buffer is created for each
file in the list and added to the buffer list, and the buffer number
rather than the file name is saved in the quickfix list. When the
quickfix list is displayed, either by :clist or by :copen, each
buffer number is resolved to the buffer name at that time.

I've done most of my testing of this by looking at the quickfix list
contents and haven't seen any unexpected results.
