    playing with this alternate impl for now. So far works with dash and ksh 
and a torture parameter:
    
    $ ./bin/ant --execdebug run 
"-Dfoo=dollar\$backtick\`single'double\"backslash\\"
    
    ```
    # wrap all arguments as "" strings, escape any internal back-slash, 
double-quote, $, or back-tick characters
    #    ant_exec_args="$ant_exec_args \"$(printf '%s\n' "$arg" | sed -e 
's@\$\|`\|"\|\\@\\\0@g' )\""
    #    quoted_arg=`printf '%s\n' \"$arg\"`
    #    esc_arg=`echo "$quoted_arg" | sed -e 's@"|\\\@\\\0@g'`
    
        # escape $, ", and \ characters by inserting a \
        esc_arg=`echo "$arg" | sed -e 's@[$"\\]@\\\\\\\\\0@g' `
        # escape ` by inserting a \
        esc_arg=`echo "$esc_arg" | sed -e 's@\`@\\\\\`@g'`
        # wrap escaped arg as a quoted argument
        quoted_arg="\"$esc_arg\""
        echo "arg       : $arg"
        echo "esc_arg   : $esc_arg"
        echo "quoted_arg: $quoted_arg"
        ant_exec_args="$ant_exec_args $quoted_arg"
    ```
