Trouble is, I don't even see the problem. Executing a file in DOS
notation is already possible:
bash$ cat << EOF > exec.c
#include <unistd.h>
int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
char *args[] = { argv[1], "abc", 0};
execv (argv[1], args);
return 1;
}
EOF
bash$ gcc -o exec exec.c
bash$ ./exec /bin/echo
abc
bash$ ./exec C:\\cygwin\\bin\\echo
abc
