I'm having a spot of trouble changing mkshortcut to use the wchar_t-enabled cygwin_create_path instead of the deprecated cygwin_conv_to_full_win32_path & co. When converting to a Windows path using CCP_POSIX_TO_WIN_W, the result is a path starting with "\\?\", e.g. "\\?\C:\cygwin\bash.exe".
Yet unfortunately the IShellLink::SetPath method does not appear to accept such paths, instead returning failure and leaving the link target unset. Therefore, is there a simple way to get from the full path to a "normal" path such as "C:\cygwin\bash.exe"? Simply dropping the "\\?\" wouldn't work for network paths. I haven't managed to find a solution on MSDN.
