The options file is newline-separated, so each option must be on one
line and there is no need for quotes:

-IC:\Program Files\Faked Path\With\include
-IC:\Foo\Bar\Foo\Bar\Foo\Bar\Foo\Bar\2.0.7\include\Common
-IC:\Bar\Foo\Bar\Foo\Bar\Foo\dev\include
-Ic:\Bar\Bar\Foo\Foo\Bar\Bar\Foo\Foo\runtimetest
-Ic:\Foo\Foo\Bar\Bar\Foo\Foo\dev
