Hm, well, that's not a valid shell string, is it?
It should be "-Alv --block-size=\"'1\"" or something like that to be
valid...
Hm... Oh! The doc string actually documents this (that it's not using
shell quoting).

Options that include embedded whitespace must be quoted
like this: "--option=value with spaces"; you can use
‘combine-and-quote-strings’ to produce the correct quoting of
each option.

So this was the original answer to this bug report. I'll revert the
change.
