Simple shell tests fail too:

$ tclsh
% set ugh "Don't; like this"
Don't; like this
% eval puts $ugh
Don't
invalid command name "like"
% set cmd [list puts $ugh]
puts {Don't; like this}
% eval $cmd
Don't; like this
% eval puts {$ugh}
Don't; like this

I think that the solution with braces would be ok if there were
no empty parameters. In order to check which are empty or not,
the proposed solution of building a list seems equally easy. I'm
short of other suggestions.
