As you are extending code in this area, perhaps you could consider a
feature request.

start-process assumes that the system is capable of handling shebang
lines in shell scripts and launching them by executing a shell. This is
not supported by Windows, and so does not work in the native Windows
builds of emacs.

It would be useful to have a way to have start-process have an option to
start the new process via a shell, so that existing code that assumes
that it can use start-process with an executable shell script can also
be made to work on Windows.
