Try the following script w/ various sets of arguments and tell me if you see
something weird!

#!/bin/bash
echo "script has $# arguments"
echo "cmdline \$* = $*"
echo "first 3 args: [$1] [$2] [$3]"

for a in $*
do
   echo "arg: $a"
done

Argument set:
A)   alpha beta gamma
B)   "alpha" "beta" "gamma"
C)   "alp ha" "be ta" "gam ma"
