Microsoft port. And as with most things, it would depend on which API/subsystem you're using. Since this thing is using posix_spawn, it's clearly using the posix API which presumably is stricter. Technically the file type stuff is managed by the PATHEXT variable. One can imagine a win32 where that variable is empty. I don't remember who is actually responsible for hosting the variable. The msdn for "start" claims that "cmd" is responsible, and the msdn for "where" says "where" is responsible. powershell/win32-openssh#1185 is some variation of this problem. It's hard for me to tell what the right behavior is/where any of this should be handled. The reason I reported it here is that I looked at the upstream code and it doesn't seem like there's an easy way for me to use ProxyJump with this flaw, because I can't influence that "ssh" string.
