Thanks for taking a look at this so quickly. I am not overly familiar
with the upstream package (barnard), but I think I understand your
comment, but I wanted to check first: It looks like it currently is
using `exec.Command` to call `/bin/sh` that is being passed the result
of the shellescaped string. Instead of passing through `sh`, just use
`exec.Command` on the string directly?

Assuming I've understood correctly, would you recommend including this
change as a patch in the package for now? Or should I try to get
upstream to incorporate the patch first?

Thanks,

-- Bradford
