The discussions in that bug report concluded that the program file
name after the pipe needs to be quoted, in order for it to work with
file names that use forward- and back-slashes alike.  I can solve that
problem for rgrep (and for other similar commands) by tweaking the
templates used by grep.el, so as to quote the %s after the pipe
character `|'.  Would that be an okay solution?

I think this is an acceptable solution, and agree that changing cmdproxy
to handle this intelligently sounds like a nightmare.

As long as cmdproxy is meant to pass commands (and in principle; acting as a proxy and dealing with various shells and with different their behaviours, requirements) to the particular shell (cmd.exe), it's best to fix this bug in a cmdproxy, because this bug is only the „problem“ of the cmd.exe.
