preventing case translation

I would like to be able to call Eunice programs from DCL. The problem
is that I want the arguments untouched. I get them all lowercased.
Even when I quote them, they are lowercased. Does any one know how to
prevent this?
E.g.
$ echo :== $unix:[usr.bin]echo echo ! the 2nd echo is for execl argv[0]
$ echo Foo
foo
$ echo "Foo"
"foo"
Apparently the quotes don't do a damn thing, because if I say
$ echo "Foo Bar"
what the program sees is:
argv[1] = "foo
argv[2] = bar"
I can handle the screwy tokenizing and unstripped quotes, but the
lowercasing is really fouling me up. Suggestions?
