I can't reproduce it - don't know how to type that characters. Can you
attach a testcase in the form of shell script?

Tracked down to problem with user's locale setup.

msh is not 8-bit clean ... this is because it uses the 8th bit for
requoting purposes

look at how the QUOTE mask is used in the quote()/unquote()/etc...
functions

due to the way msh handles quoting, i think the only way to fix it is to
duplicate the command buffer and manage the quoting over there instead of
inline by using the 8th bit
