        Yeah, sometimes I turn it on to heat up the room,
        or to run "soundeditor" to record stuff off the radio..

        FWIW, and just to be clear, the original '$compile' (pre-patch)
        didn't work on Irix either:

# compile="/some/path/Foo Bar.cxx"
# prog="`basename '$compile' .cxx`"
# echo $prog
$compile

        ..and Mike's example for the Mac gives the same results on Irix:

# foo=bar
# echo $foo
bar
# echo "$foo"
bar
# echo "'$foo'"
'bar'
# uname
IRIX64

        I get those results on Fedora3/bash as well.. so those three
        platforms are all in agreement on that.
