+Yes, that is less obfuscated version of that, whichever you feel more
+comfortable with... for more discussion about the alternatives here see:

+(but don't look that -- it is unnecessary and only causes headache ;D)

+Interestigly zsh on Scientific Linux 6.2 fails here (zsh 4.3.10) -- I tried
+various tricks and none helped. Hmm also zsh 4.3.17 on Ubuntu 12.04 fails.
+zsh 5.0.2 on Fedora 20 works OK. ksh & bash installed on all these 3
+systems work OK (and also bash 3.2.51... on Mac OS X). 
+
+IMO this quoting should be done -- so I can send you email with:
