  | magnolia$ echo $BASH_VERSION
  | 4.4.12(1)-release

Just realised I was using a system with an older bash than I do
have available here for that test, on a newer one (but still not 5):

jinx$ echo $BASH_VERSION
4.4.19(1)-release
jinx$ alias foo='echo x "'
jinx$ foo bar"
x   bar

Now there are 3 spaces between 'x' and 'bar' ... like many of us,
bash seems to be getting wider as it gets older!
