This code in winsup/cygwin/path.cc looks a little suspicious:

   /* Check for shortcut as symlink condition. */
   if (win32_name.has_attribute (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY))
     {
       int len = strlen (win32_name);
       if (len > 4 && strcasematch ((char *) win32_name + len - 4, ".lnk"))
         SetFileAttributes (win32_name, (DWORD) win32_name & ~FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY);
     }

The second argument to SetFileAttributes should be using a field in win32_name,
not win32_name itself, seems like.
