cygwin-1.4.0: * Support in cygstart for unicode arguments/filenames (from IWAMURO Motonori). IIRC, part of this change affected how "bare" names (e.g. without paths) were handled, to facilitate proper unicode support. This may be relevant: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-01/msg01101.html but I never got a patch. I suspect this will need debugging for the 'bash' case, and an explicit workaround for 'mailto:'.
