R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

Why do you consider this to be a bug?  You set posix=False and 
whitespace_split=True, so it seems to me that according to the documented rules 
the " inside the word ("a is as documented not recognized as a quote character. 
 If you use either posix=True or whitespace_split=False the string parses 
without error.  (Since I have no idea what standard non-posix mode is based on, 
I have no idea whether or not this is in fact correct behavior, though.)
