Yes, the executing binary can do a lot, but the trouble is that it doesn't
expect that it should need to do that (and thus it probably doesn't do it)
since the Unix shell would probably strip these quotes _if_ the command is
started from shell. That is probably the whole reason why it fails for the
original poster right now.
