Okay, it seems cygwin readdir() returns the filenames as "????.TEST" (where
?:s are really ?:s (ascii 0x3f)). Looking at fhandler_disk_file.cc, this
can't be caused by much else than by FindFirstFileA() returning "????.TEST".
And indeed, if made a little non-unicode test program, that called
FindFirstFile, and it returned "????.TEST" ("\0x3f\0x3f\0x3f\0x3f.TEST").
To access the file, the wide char versions of Find*File() functions would
propably have to be used (or is there another way?). I can't no idea how this
could be integrated into the cygwin framework...
Any ideas?
