Agreed. It was just an experiment. Closed now.

Next SQLite will be 3.8.0, which is in beta now, is already included in
Fossil. This means that the backslash problem is not fixed yet.
However, I think I found the cause of this problem! In os_win.c, the
function used to determine the temporary directory is
GetTempPath(). This function is documented to return:
1) The path specified by the TMP environment variable.
2) The path specified by the TEMP environment variable.
3) The path specified by the USERPROFILE environment variable.
4) The Windows directory.
We see that it apparently returns the Windows directory, it cannot
fiund any of the environment variables!
SQLITE_CANTOPEN: os_win.c:34887: (5)
winOpen(C:\Windows\etilqs_S8FDopj6QWC9mu4) - Access is denied.
$ ls -la /cygdrive/c
total 7265374
......
drwxrwx---+ 1 TrustedInstaller TrustedInstaller 0 May 23
09:10 Windows
......
We don't have sufficient rights in the C:\Windows directory! Cygwin clears
the Windows environment space, therefore none of the environment
variables can be found.
Proposed solution here (should move to sqlite if accepted):
