This isn't a Groovy bug.  Compile & run this and you'll observe the same 
behavior

{code:java}
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        ProcessBuilder processBuilder = new ProcessBuilder("sh -c 'echo test'");
        processBuilder.redirectOutput(ProcessBuilder.Redirect.INHERIT);
        processBuilder.redirectError(ProcessBuilder.Redirect.INHERIT);
        Process process = processBuilder.start();
    }
}
{code}

There's several 
[discussions|https://www.google.com/search?q="Runtime.getRuntime().exec"+quote] 
about this.  [This 
one|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/161859/using-quotes-within-getruntime-exec]
 goes into some detail.

The only thing Groovy could try to do is tokenize out your string parts for 
you.  But I don't see how you could intelligently make that determination 
programmatically.
