How does DJGPP handle a single quote inside of single quotes?

For sh you must do something like:

    'text'\''more text'

to achieve an argument whose value is

    text'more text

If DJGPP does something different then they aren't really that similar.

buildargv() lets you write something like this:

    'text\'more text'
