Often when executing a external command, eshell gets a bit confused.
For example, when doing `ls -B' (-B will cause eshell to call the
external ls):

~ $ ls -lB

But, when inovoking the external command directly, /bin/ls -lB, it
works as it should,

Is this with the latest version of Emacs (22)? If so please report it as 
a bug from the menus: Help - Send Bug Report

I don't think we have anyone that regularly maintains eshell.
Would you like to try to debug this?

This is from CVS emacs, sorr for forgetting to mention that.  But the
bug probobly exists in Emacs 21 and 22 as well, but I do not use
those.

I tried, but I failed.  The code for eshell is to complex for me.
