I suggest to check the reality.  I'm not entirely sure what
`it' stands for here, but no related noun (shell, execve,
libc entry code, kernel, ...) does any such thing on Linux.
And there is no occasion when it would make sense to do --
unless you mean running other programs via the shell, but in
this case `it' is your program and you can use any quoting
the shell understands, e.g. double quotes.
