Before you disappear, let me just chime in from the peanut gallery that I
find the whole "crunch inferior arguments through sh" to be uncomfortable.
Can't we just have two command line routes, one that uses sh, and one that
does not (it would just execvp the arguments for the most part) ?
That way people who want "it works like the run command" get their option
and people who want "debug whatever I was running durnit" get theirs.
