problems passing -DPARAM="String" from sh

[Gerard Blais]

The following sh script works fine with cygnus B20 but causes an error with
the latests cygwin.

#!/bin/sh
SOURCE="-DPARAM=\"Stringfirstpart Stringsecondpart\" file.cpp"
icl $SOURCE


This simply calls the icl (intel compiler) as: icl -DPARAM="Stringfirstpart
Stringsecondpart" file.cpp
The compiler complains about Stringsecondpart" not being a valid source
file.  Somehow the space contained in the string causes the compiler to see
this as two seperate parameters even though they should be seen as a single
string.  It works fine if the string has no spaces in it.
