Mingw translates command-line arguments that look like a path into windows style pathnames if the DLL is present.
I'm wondering what happens if you have a Lisp running under Mingw. Might the environment variables that the Lisp sees be populated with pathnames that aren't good Windows PNs?
Running SBCL from within msys: * *default-pathname-defaults*
#P"c://" * (truename "Program Files")
#P"c://Program Files/"
Not sure what the double slash is about, it's not present when run from cmd.exe
The msys shell itself seems to be translating things to /c/Program Files/
