st: Shell commands in batch mode - any solution found?

Dear Statalist,
I would like to run pdflatex from within a do-file, but this appears
not to be possible on Windows while in batch mode: while
!pdflatex "texfilename.tex"
(for example) works exactly as expected while running a do-file in the
usual way, the following is returned when running in batch mode:
"request ignored because of batch mode"
I see that this was raised nearly 4 years ago (*), but I am hoping
someone has found a solution (or a useful workaround) in the meantime.
Best,
BL

PS - I am using Stata 12.1 SE on a Windows 7 Pro 64-bit computer, and
running batch commands via CygWin, e.g.:
$STATAEXE -b do "mydofile.do" &
