That's most unpleasant. I don't suppose there's any way to control
Cygwin's bash in re where to put double quotes around arguments

that bash thinks need quoting.
I'd be very surprised if bash was doing anything different for
Windows than it does for linux. cygwin1.dll does do some quoting of
arguments to non-cygwin programs if it thinks it is required.
Well, *something* had to be adding the double-quotes. It's execve()
and such adding them, then?
But, no, we're not going to implement a complicated scheme to turn
that off for random programs.
