Create a batch file which sets SHELL to the full Windows path to MSys'
sh.exe then runs grass70.py.

I've tried following in a bat-file (with the WinGrass7-installation inC:\Program Files\GRASS-70-SVN):

set SHELL="C:\Program Files\GRASS-70-SVN\msys\bin\sh.exe"
"C:\Program Files\GRASS-70-SVN\grass70.py"

but it fails because of the missing settings of paths to utilities (libraries and bynaries) used by GRASS,
path to the python directory, etc.

these settings are already done in grass70.bat
(written out by the installer see
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/mswindows/GRASS-Installer.nsi#L660).

also in Grass70.bat grass70.py is invoked.

so would maybe a bat-file with

set SHELL="C:\Program Files\GRASS-70-SVN\msys\bin\sh.exe"
"C:\Program Files\GRASS-70-SVN\grass70.bat"

an option to get a msys-shell (although a msys-shell in a windows-commandline and not in an rxvt-terminal)?

That sounds like it should work. I don't see any reason to have the
same PATH setting in multiple batch files.
