I have an msbuild/xbuild file which uses the Exec task to invoke a

backslashes into forward slashes, as they usually represent a directory
separation character, but in this specific case I need it passed without
conversion. I have tried escaping (\\) and encoding (\) but neither
worked.
How can this be achieved?
It's probably an xbuild bug, as it should only try to convert the first
element, not the arguments.
I take that back, since the arguments can contain file paths too. I
guess this is a hard problem to solve. Maybe the \ -> / conversion
should only live in the IO layer, not in the xbuild layer.
