I made an attempt to get "cp foo /bin" working "correctly" so that foo.exe
would be copied if there was no existing foo but I never got it quite right.
I don't think my changes should be reincorporated although it would be nice
to get this working.

sh-utils should be patched so that test.exe uses the cygwin version of
access() rather than the sh-utils version.

Other than that, I think it should be standard.
