I'm not sure I follow what you're after. You want Cygwin to recognize when it's setting up a pipe involving a specific executable, and to set that up as if it were using byte pipes rather than message pipes? I would imagine that would be difficult-to-impossible, for the same reason as trying to work out whether an executable links into cygwin1.dll.
