  system("cmd.exe", "/c", "test.bat", *args)  # works
  system("cmd.exe", "/c", "c:\\path\\to\\test.bat", *args)  # works
  system("cmd.exe", "/c", "c:\\path\\to\\foo foo\\test.bat", *args)  # fails
  system("cmd.exe", "/c", "\"c:\\path\\to\\foo foo\\test.bat\"", *args)  # fails

For jruby.bat and multi-argument sh() we could use the first form
above, though bindir is still a problem.  I don't know of another
solution.
