Gunnar,
I assume your $CYGWIN contains "check_case:strict", since that is the
setting in which the short paths won't work.  They will work if $CYGWIN
contains "check_case:adjust".  So, you can use the following sequence in
your .bashrc to get the correct form of the windows path:

if [ -n "$CFH" ] ; then
   CFH="$(export CYGWIN="$CYGWIN check_case:adjust";cygpath -w -l "$CFH")"
   cd "$CFH"
   unset CFH
fi

Hope this helps,
	Igor
