You seem to be asking for accomodations in Cygwin to handler programs
that are not built with Cygwin.  That really isn't the goal of Cygwin.

However, as I said, provide a patch.  I'll evalutate it.

FWIW, I will *not* accept a patch which "automatically" translates
command line arguments.  I think that is a remarkably bad idea.
