The goal of some of these tests is precisely to check that what you
get in argc/argv is what you expect. For instance, if the command line
specified to CreateProcess is ... "a\"b\\" c\" d you would expect:
argv[1] = [a"b\]
argv[2] = [c"]
argv[3] = [d]
That would be hard to check without accessing argc/argv in some way.
