The Start menu's Run... command accepts forward slashes, and cmd.exe parses unquoted forward slashes as parameter delimiters. Are you just alluding to _quoted_ forwards slashes in cmd.exe?

Sure it does: Not to mention, the Windows itself don't see much of a difference between / and \ in path. (where it see, it is a bug). I should clarify. cygcheck does understand UNIX paths. It does not understand symlinks just like the OP said.
