This shouldn't really matter, because space compaction is done by
build_argv().  It only matters if you care about memory usage.

However, there is a bug in insert_files().  It doesn't properly
respect the quoting style defined by build_argv().  For instance, this
string will be misinterpreted as a request for file insertion (the
quotes are part of the string):

	" -@file"

I think it's important to respect this quoting style, because it is
the same quoting style used by spawn_guts().
