Hi All,

Consider this trivial wrapper:

wrapper()
{
   command "$@"
}

Under an older bash like 4.4.20, when we suspend this with Ctrl-Z we get this:

$ wrapper cat
^Z
[1]+  Stopped                 cat

But under a newer bash, like 5.2.37:

$ wrapper cat
^Z
[1]+  Stopped                 command "$@"

The job control listing of the suspended "command" command shows the
unexpanded syntax now.

Thanks for the report. I'll take a look.
