I think Cygwin always meant to consider paths with a \ as Windows
paths, but that was not consistently enforced until 1.5.10
AFAIK there is no way to specify a default for Windows paths.
Perhaps the cygdrive choice could apply to them as well, but
changing anything in this area is sure to break something, somewhere.
