Drat, typo alert:
It looks to me like that 'if' statement should read

Use 'len + 1', otherwise the result would possibly be not null terminated.
POSIX says: "The array shall not be zero-terminated if the value
returned is /n/.".
Linux mbstowcs(3) says: "... the programmer should make sure dsize is
greater than or equal to mbstowcs(NULL,src,0)+1."

Thank you for the demonstration code. I was actually asking about
something more subtle in the cygstart code but muffed that with typos;
you've answered that question as well :).
A new version 1.4.17-4 of the cygutils packages with a corrected
'cygstart' is now making its way to the mirrors.
Thanks all,
