            Bug ID: 16059
           Summary: wordexp(3) -- A[0]='a b' gives error
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc

Hi, I'm not sure if it's bug or just misunderstanding.  Given two
similar cases,

    wordexp ("one:  A[0]='a b'  end", &w, 0);   --> error=5 (WRDE_SYNTAX)
    wordexp ("one:  'A[0]=a b'  end", &w, 0);   --> ok

the result should be 3 strings,

    one:
    A[0]=a b
    end

just like shell.  Yet, I get error for the first case.  I think
wordexp() is getting confused about glob [0] which is followed by
<single-quote> and then <space>.
