You can use -print0, and since find is a cygwin application I don't see
what the point of using cygpath is:

find / -xdev -user $USER -print0 | xargs -0 chown Administrators.SYSTEM

Though I would be tempted just to do "chown -R / ..." or even better,
just set the desired ACL on c:\cygwin before installing and let it be
inherited.
