DJGPP supports quoting that is almost identical to the Unix one.  The
only difference is that the backslash is only handled as an escape
character if it precedes a single or a double quote (to avoid
mishandling DOS file names with backslashes).  So as long as the
quoting is done with single quotes, the DJGPP port will DTRT.
