I think there is a bug in shell-quote-argument that is used here. This function does not care about shell-file-name. How can quoting succeed if it does not do that?

Indeed, that is a problem, as is the blind wrapping in double quotes on w32 when ms-dos has a much more complete implementation of what should be done for Windows native shells. But it doesn't explain why you are getting sh style quoting on w32 without making changes to that function.
