good localtime()

I was told to write here after a conversation on irc. when i run the
following code under rakudo 2017.07 on windows 8.1

    shell qq[echo "foo"];

the output is

    \"foo"

which is incorrect. It should be

    "foo"

This bug effectively prevents from shelling out to a program while using
quoted strings as arguments.

tx for listening
