My process is dependent on the fact that TMP/TEMP have in/out rewriting of
strings from POSIX to WINDOWS so please leave it as is.

And I have a mashup of Cygwin and Windows applications.  I use Cygwin as a
tool for Windows applications not a replacement of the Windows applications.

I suppose a CYGWIN environment option could  control  the result with the
default being the current actions.
