cmd.exe applies some inconsistent "smart" (in an MS sense...) magic 
quoting; it adds additional quotes if the parameter contains non-ASCII 
characters.

You can also test this with cygwin /bin/echo:
C:\cygwin\bin>.\echo "bla"
bla

C:\cygwin\bin>.\echo "blö"
"blö"

This is also the reason why 'chere' fails on non-ASCII directories.

Due to the weird cmd.exe behaviour, you cannot. However, cygwin could 
apply a workaround by magic unquoting.
