I see your problem now.
Would it be a problem for you to use ant to run the program instead of
the exec-plugin? Then you could have Ant convert the path:
<pathconvert targetos="unix" property="unix-path">
<path location="${project.build.outputDirectory}" />
</pathconvert>
Now if there was a way to have this property available in Maven, you
could use the exec-plugin, but I believe you can't access this property
(${unix-path}) in Maven...
