Ah, okay.  But, after the changes you posted, which file names may
need unquoting, and why?  The whole point of the changes is not to use
any file names literally in the command line passed to the shell.  And
our low-level primitives that invoke the shell already know to unquote
file names, so this should "just work", no?
