If I type `cygstart mailto:recipient?subject=subject' at a Cygwin bash prompt, I expect my default Windows mail program to start an outgoing message with `recipient' as recipient and `subject' as subject. (This is what happens if I type the same URL into a `Start Menu -> Run' box.) What happens instead is that `recipient?subject=subject' shows up as the recipient, with the question mark replaced by something unprintable, and the subject is blank.

FYI, the "unprintable" character is U+F03F, which is not even a valid unicode character.
... and, coincidentally, the ascii code for '?' is 0x3f.
