Sys.command and quotes

[Matthieu Dubuget <matthieu.dubuget@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I have a problem with mingw version of ocaml (compiled by hand, or with 
godi).

1- Is the following reproducible?

2- If yes, do you consider this as a bug?

It seems that in "Sys.command s", if the first and the last characters 
of s are '"', they are elided?

It prevents menhir (20090402) to compile on my mingw system with 
ocamlfind in use (because when
ocamlfind is used, the dependencies are found with an ocamlfind ocamldep 
call).

Thanks in advance


Objective Caml version 3.11.0
