Good catch !!
Hmmm...  I don't know.

The only place I know of where I set SHELL is in config.sys
SHELL=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND.COM C:\ /E:2048 /P

It is not set in any of 
autoexec.bat
cygwin.bat
.bashrc
.bash_profile

NHV:/> bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.04.0(10)-release (i586-pc-cygwin32)

Hmm..  they are all reported as Unix files

Same problem :-(
