[ldapvi] ldapvi cannot handle whitespace in $PAGER value

Hi,

I set

export PAGER="less -s" 

and man(1) doesn't have any issues but ldapvi does.  It goes:

Pager died.

when I use that setting and ask for Action? (v) view LDIF changes 

I've never seen a program have problems with setting $PAGER to have whitespace it in before.

$ ldapvi --version
ldapvi 1.7

Any chance this can be fixed? 

Thanks,
Ken
