32    Note that spawn() does not by itself call the command interpreter
33      (getenv ("COMSPEC") != NULL ? getenv ("COMSPEC") :
34       ({ OSVERSIONINFO v; v.dwOSVersionInfoSize = sizeof(OSVERSIONINFO);
35          GetVersionEx(&v);
36          v.dwPlatformId == VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_NT;
37       }) ? "cmd.exe" : "command.com").
38    Instead it simply concatenates the arguments, separated by ' ', and calls
39    CreateProcess().  We must quote the arguments since Windows CreateProcess()
40    interprets characters like ' ', '\t', '\\', '"' (but not '<' and '>') in a
41    special way:
42    - Space and tab are interpreted as delimiters. They are not treated as
43      delimiters if they are surrounded by double quotes: "...".
44    - Unescaped double quotes are removed from the input. Their only effect is
45      that within double quotes, space and tab are treated like normal
46      characters.
47    - Backslashes not followed by double quotes are not special.
48    - But 2*n+1 backslashes followed by a double quote become
49      n backslashes followed by a double quote (n >= 0):
50        \" -> "
51        \\\" -> \"
52        \\\\\" -> \\"
53    - '*', '?' characters may get expanded through wildcard expansion in the
54      callee: By default, in the callee, the initialization code before main()
55      takes the result of GetCommandLine(), wildcard-expands it, and passes it
56      to main(). The exceptions to this rule are:
57        - programs that inspect GetCommandLine() and ignore argv,
58        - mingw programs that have a global variable 'int _CRT_glob = 0;',
59        - Cygwin programs, when invoked from a Cygwin program.
