The Bourne shell is merely told to run the command as given by a 
string.  It splits the string up into arguments based off quotation and 
escaping, and then calls it using execv().  The arguments of importance 
are the ones in whatever the last execv() call is, before making it into 
the proper interpreter and your script.  In the case of the jobqueue, 
jobs are only routed through Bourne as a means of "cheating", using the 
shell to split apart the arguments and manage IO redirection rather than 
re-implementing such things internally.
