Hmm. What happens in this instance on Windows? We should probably try to make the behaviour consistent.
But quoting in sh is a quick way to insanity.
cmd.exe and sh do the same thing: they collect quoted arguments into one command argument and remove the quotes. So the solution seems pretty simple: just replace all instances of " with \"
