Ah, sorry I was unclear. trim_quotes (not strip_quotes) will
remove only leading and trailing quotes. But right, it would
wreck something like this:
shell_build_command = ./configure &my_cflags()
If you wanted the above to expand to:
shell_build_command = ./configure "CFLAGS=-g -O"
My last proposal would be this:

Point taken about being literal. My thinking is that most
will be only guessing about the quoting mechanism of
funclets (as I was for a bit), and there would never be a
real case for sending '"cmd"' to exec().
