Indeed! Patrick, can you confirm that this fixes it for you? You'll probably
encounter another problem in the same area that I am working on, but you
should see a different error message at least :-(
We probably need to audit the whole of libtool for nested quotes, and add
a test case to sh.test to stop us introducing more. Bonus marks for a patch :*)
Cheers,
Gary.
