How did I eff up passing a literal raw space character... Just FYI, the build on my mac is failing with some complaints about |
Fecked up the forceQuote logic. Guess that's why.
Empty arguments are seen as significant now, so we have to be explicitly passing an empty list in the position.
What isn't valid is a missing argv entry after -c.

Turns out the biggest trove of code that relies on the ad hoc behavior is the pester suite. This does turn out to be a nice set of examples to illustrate the point (urgh), so that's definitely going into the writeup. We really need to add a paragraph about native stuff in about_Parameters. Integrating this back with the legacy code to make it an experimental switch would take some time too. The code is gonna look incoherent again. |

These changes do not yet take into account the experimental feature switch needed. After such a switch has happened, some of the tests will be changed to explicitly specify legacy or current behavior.
