The problem there is that the last line is going to get interpreted by a shell before anything is executed, so you now have to escape characters that are special to the shell within a quoted string. This is unlike the compiled fstab-decode program that invokes the execvp() library call and avoids further shell parsing.
Does it, though?
$ bash fstab-decode.sh echo '$PATH' $PATH $ bash fstab-decode.sh ls '*' ls: cannot access '*': No such file or directory
