Checking arguments with the echo shell built-in on Windows is not a good 
idea. It behaves (not even) slightly different from real executables.

Create an executable that prints its arguments and you will find that 
triple double-quotes (sextquotes? ;)) will print:

C:\>printAllArgs """hello"""
"hello"


Cheers,

Joerg
