There's a thread from about 8 years ago which goes over quite a few
issues with .bat files, spaces, and Cygwin.  Though, eventually someone
extrapolated a way to pull Cygwin out of the equation and show that
even cmd could be broken pretty badly under some circumstances.

Check out:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-09/msg00081.html
for more information and to see if it might cover what you're running
into now.  That's the initial question, just read through some of
the child responses to get more information.
