This actually points out a bug I found the other day, but haven't been
able to figure out how to solve.

Using "echo $*" in this way causes variable or argument expansions that
include a "space" to fail.

We have a few cases where we need to pass in CFLAGS w/ multiple elements
or CC='distcc ccache foo-gcc -te500v1'.. which causes a failure to occur.

I replaced the args bit with a simple "$@" in the args list to work
around the issue.. but I don't know of a way of modifying the arguments
in the shell and passing them properly quoted.
