vcbuild failed with exit code 1 on node_js2c.vcxproj

I'm trying to compile node on windows 10 x64. I've installed python-2.7.11.amd64 and Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop. I've forked repo to my github account and cloned it to local machine using GitHub Desktop UI. Then I did git checkout nodejs/v5.x and vcbuild nosign. After long time of waiting I've successfully compiled node 5.7.1. But then I want to compile v5.5.0 so I did git checkout v5.5.0 i.e. I've detached HEAD. Then I've removed folders build and Release and did vcbuild nosign. During the proccess I've got an error:

i.e. a space symbol broke a string and all command. In the end I didn't get compiled binaries. Am I doing something wrong or it's a problem with software?

Translation of messages:
white message right before error: "C:\Program isn't inner or outer command, executable programm or batch file"
red message (error): "cmd.exe exited with code 1"

It looks like this has recently been fixed via #4841. It looks like it did not land in v5.x until v5.7.0. A workaround would be to make sure the installed python is in a path that does not include spaces.
