...is there a way to tell Cygwin that variables other than PATH, etc 
(i.e. arbitrary, user-specified variables) should be converted from 
POSIX format to Windows format when spawning a non-POSIX application?

If not, would it be acceptable to add such a feature if I were to submit 
a patch for it?
