Summary: windres preprocessor bug

Initial Comment:
binutils 05-07-2001

When windres call default preprocessor thru the 
$(SHELL) it run it as:
sh /c gcc -E -xc -DRC_INVOKED file.rc
but it incorrect and must be
sh /c "gcc -E -xc -DRC_INVOKED file.rc"

Example
makefile:
WINDRES=windres 

.PHONY: $(SUBDIRS)

$(SUBDIRS):
	(cd $@ && $(MAKE) WINDRES="$(WINDRES)" -f 
makefile.sub;)

makefile.sub:

$(SYNNAME).res.o: $(SYNNAME).rc
	$(WINDRES) -i $< -o $@
I get error from sh - Bad -c option. After changing 
makefile:
WINDRES=windres --preprocessor \\\gcc -E -xc -
DRC_INVOKED\\\

all work fine.

Since windres normally uses "popen" to execute the gcc 
preprocessor directly, I don't know where "sh" comes from. 
Does anyone else have any ideas, or has this been fixed in 
windres at some point?
