Comment (by cypherpunks):

 More testing shows that it does not work without eval because of the
 default '--detach' argument which got added in #15741.

 Replacing the line with
 {{{
 ${TBB_START_PROG} "${@}"
 }}}
 does seem to work. (Note that there is no eval and the first variable is
 not quoted).
