This is partly due to the use of --login , which causes it to act
as if it's a fresh login shell, so of course, it goes to your home
directory. Try it with just -c .
Without setting that, zsh and bash seem to honor $PWD, probably, which
I suspect is exported by Vim.. I'm having trouble getting my rc file
to print it out when started from Vim.

When I try to use cygwin stuff with the "!" command or similar things
from vim, it doesn't seem to know where it is.
That is, if I open up a file on the desktop with gvim, and do
:pwd
It prints out the path of the desktop (thanks to autochdir I think).
However, if I do
:! pwd
It prints out the location of my windows home directory. Is there
anyway I could automatically pass to the shell the location it should
start in?
