I don't know how to do it without using .bashrc, but this works for me 
(current cygwin, NT 4.0)

Registry key contains:

D:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -sb -sr -sl 16384 -fn fixedsys -fg gray -bg black 
-e /bin/env CFH="%1" /bin/bash --login

.bashrc contains

if [ "$CFH" != "" ] ; then
     cd "$CFH"
     unset CFH
fi

No temporary files, bash.exe or .bash_profile is not executed twice. 
Also looks like cygpath -u is not needed, DOS paths seem to work in cd 
command.
