-Subject: build: unbreak configure stage when RELWITHDEBINFO is blank/has space
-
-When cmake is invoked with either an empty argument or one that
-involves a space,
-
-```sh
-cmake ... -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO:STRING=""`
-cmake ... -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO:STRING="-O2 -O2"
-```
-
-then rdma's CMakeLists.txt falls on its face:
-
-[    3s] CMake Error at buildlib/RDMA_BuildType.cmake:32 (if):
-[    3s]   if given arguments:
-[    3s] 
-[    3s]     "STREQUAL" " -O2 -g -DNDEBUG"
-[    3s] 
-[    3s]   Unknown arguments specified
