[h-e-w] Slow M-! start .

Hi,

For some reason M-! start . RET or M-! cygstart . RET (cygstart is
~"start for Cygwin") takes about 15s before I get the explorer
window.  If, on the other hand, I say M-! start .& RET, the window
opens instantly.

My shell-file-name is zsh and start is a zsh function start () {
cmd /c start \"\" $* } but this doesn't seem to be zsh-specific 
because if I set shell-file-name to cmdproxy, I get the same
behaviour.

Has anyone else seen this?  Any ideas what might cause it?

I'm using EmacsW32 22.0.990.1 2007-05-23 on 32bit Windows XP SP3.
