Indeed. MSYS2 programs link to the msys dll, yes, and that performs the path conversions at the right times yes, so when a program asks to spawn another program, msys2 intercepts and translates the MSYS2 paths it sees (sometimes it guesses this wrong) to Windows paths, iff the program to run is *not* another MSYS2 program (which doesn't need or want native Windows paths). This is one of the key things that MSYS2 does and Cygwin does not do, it's a part of MSYS2's sympathy for the Windows OS.
