Description:
------------
escapeshellarg() doesn't escape correctly double quotes (enclosing with
simple quotes on Windows does not work anyway...)

Reproduce code:
---------------
conversion.php
--------------
<?php
// The goal is to pass geographic coordinates
echo escapeshellarg($argv[1]);
?>

shell
-----
$ php conversion.php 45°53'36"

Expected result:
----------------
"45°53'36\""

Actual result:
--------------
"45°53'36"
