Module Name:    src
Committed By:   kre
Date:           Fri Oct 29 19:27:07 UTC 2021

        src/lib/libc/stdlib: system.c

Log Message:
Add "--" 'options end' parameter to the sh -c call that runs the
command, so that the command cannot appear to be more options
(which always then fails, as there would be no arg for "-c" to
treat as the command string in that case).

For the full (LONG) explanation, see:
