You're right.  The proper fix to this is to ensure that nulonly
is not set in varvalue for $*.  It should only be set for $@ when
it's inside double quotes.

In fact there is another bug while we're playing with $@/$*.
When IFS is set to a non-whitespace character such as :, $*
outside quotes won't remove empty fields as it should.

This patch fixes both problems.
