source of the problem are bat scripts, in this case
`$ARCH_DISTDIR\bin\r.out.xyz.bat`
{{{
@"%GRASS_SH%" -c '"%GISBASE%/scripts/r.out.xyz" %*'
}}}
where '\` are escaped. To make Bash script working on Windows is generally
speaking pain. The future are Python scripts in GRASS 7. I still think
that Pythonized script could replace most of Bash scripts in GRASS 6.
Benefits:
* maintaining scripts only in one language
* Python scripts can run on Windows without any problems
Drawback:
* some new bugs can be introduced, anyway some Bash-related can be fixed
by this conversion
* Python as requirement
I proposed that some time ago, but it was refused.
