Hi,
The following test case script fails under cygwin64:
```
out32=$(/cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/echo.exe 'a\\ b')
out64=$(/cygdrive/c/cygwin64/bin/echo.exe 'a\ b')
test "$out32" = "$out64"
```
In other words, while the correct (by-argv-memory) result is `a\\ b`,
cygwin32 gives `a\ b` as output instead. The test case works fine when
CYGWIN=noglob is set, but then `echo.exe 'a\" b'` fails miserably.
I miss to see why running a 32bit Cygwin from a 64 bit instance
makes any sense and it will be worth to spend any time on handling
this borderline case .
