Multi-argument run() fails on Windows when first parameter is a full path that contains spaces #22
Description
Tests 1 and 2 below fail, but 3 and 4 work. The third one isn't great, because it makes me responsible for properly quoting the entire command. The fourth one isn't great either, because the thing we want to run might not be in the PATH.
