So I assume then that make is expected to use the same quoting rules as CMD
when short-circuiting the shell. Then there is another bug: make's arg
quoting has some special treatment for single quotes, whereas cmd.exe
itself hasn't. So, in
SHELL=cmd.exe
default:
'a b\x.bat'
'a b\x.bat' >NUL
The first invocation of x.bat works, while the second one won't (''a' is
not recognized as...)
This is not a problem for my use case, but it did add to my confusion when
doing experiments.
