Benjamin Marwell commented on MNG-4559:
---------------------------------------

eval is necessary. Eg look at this IBM code, they also need to support ksh 
(which is a posix shell used by AIX as a default):

[https://github.com/OpenLiberty/open-liberty/blob/bd54569d3322c4321a7dda4fcf94d65f85bf13bf/dev/com.ibm.ws.kernel.boot.ws-server/publish/bin/server#L695-L716]

Follow the eval methods and how they define them.

(hint: EPLv1).

(hint 2: they support spaces and comments)

> I'm trying to pass a quoted parameter through MAVEN_OPTS, e.g.
> MAVEN_OPTS="-Dfoo='bar baz'"
> As a result the quotes are not resolved, causing Java failure:
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: baz'
> ...
> I couldn't figure out a way to make it work.
