Pymake's clinetoargv is very specific to pymake's use case, yet has been abused as a replacement for shlex because shlex doesn't handle things properly for our use cases.

Plus, less dependencies on pymake will help kill it for good some day.
This directory contains common Python code. The basic rule is that if Python code is cross-module (that's "module" in the Mozilla meaning - as in "module ownership") and is MPL-compatible, it should go here. What should not go here: * Python that is not MPL-compatible (see other-licenses/) * Python that has good reason to remain close to its "owning" (Mozilla) module (e.g. it is only being consumed from there).
