IMHO this is a bug in the shell-script MAVEN_HOME/bin/maven

Change the lines containing 

        $MAIN_CLASS $@

into

        $MAIN_CLASS "$@"

Well after all, this probably depends upon the actual shell you are
using.  I don't know if a korn shell (ksh) would support "$@"....
Probably the first line

        #! /bin/sh

should be changed to

        #!/bin/bash

as well?  Don't know how this behaves on other unix, e.g. Solaris when
you possibly don't have a bash!

I remind I have mentioned this already in a JIRA issue (cannot remind
which one) but it seems it has not been fixed in CVS HEAD yet!

Committers, do you want us to create a JIRA issue?
