I've been looking at the source code for Perl and comparing how it reads arguments versus PHP's method, and it seems to be expected behaviour, as Perl handles the arguments as edink has shown below.
As to why this behaviour is such, I'm at a loss. You'd think that the behaviour would try to match starting up a process from a shell, i.e. having a whole array of arguments in argv rather than having everything mashed into argv[1]. Maybe it's a POSIX thing or something?
