Trivial:
marcus@ulysses[0]:/tmp$ echo -n | wc
0 0 0
marcus@ulysses[0]:/tmp$ echo -- -n | wc
1 2 6
Writing a shell fucntion around it which returns yes or no is left as an
exercise to the reader :)

Environment variables for this make me feel uneasy... especially if you want
to use /bin/echo or different echos.
