Hey everyone,

I have to following problem (using cmd.exe):

C:\cygwin64\home\xy>C:\cygwin64\bin\echo.exe -DFOO=\"BAR\" -DBAR=\"FOO\"
-DFOO=\BAR" -DBAR="FOO"

I would have expected:

-DFOO="BAR" -DBAR="FOO"

Context: I'm executing various cygwin programs through (native) Python and
passing C macros to gcc like 'gcc -DFOO=\"BAR\"' fails because of this.

More background: https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/issues/3548
