It may be related to build_argv() in 
https://github.com/mirror/newlib-cygwin/blob/master/winsup/cygwin/dcrt0.cc

line 320 to 328:
            /* Skip over characters until the closing quote */
            {
              sawquote = cmd;
              /* Handle quoting.  Only strip off quotes if the parent is
                 a Cygwin process, or if the word starts with a '@'.
                 In this case, the insert_file function needs an unquoted
                 DOS filename and globbing isn't performed anyway. */
              cmd = quoted (cmd, winshell && argc > 0 && *word != '@');
            }

As the comment says,

c:\cygwin\home\hiroo> touch @"あああ"

gives file named @あああ.
