Which just shows me that Wine does it too late for this case (probably
in CreateFile instead of the heuristic MSYS is using when it adjusts
process arguments), so Wine is not perfect. And there is no perfect
solution to this issue, MSYS gets it wrong sometimes, and Wine gets it
wrong sometimes (no, I'm in no way advocating that Wine should somehow
adopt the argument mangling strategy used by MSYS).

And you really can't blame cl for this, it's a Wine problem. / is very
much documented as the cl option marker (what a brain fart that is, but
luckily the dash works equally well), so you better use \ if you need
to pass rooted paths w/o drive letters (has to be rare on Windows). But
that piece of advice doesn't help Wine users much of course...
