OK, that seems to work.  But it also doesn't seem to offer any
advantages over the eval command.

hobbit:~$ cat z
-foo $(date >&2)
# a whole line comment
-file="a file with spaces"
-bar # an inline comment
-q
hobbit:~$ declare -a "a=( $(<z) )"; declare -p a

declare -a a=([0]="-foo" [1]="-file=a file with spaces" [2]="-bar" [3]="-q")

The command substitution is still executed, just as it is with eval.
