Sorry for the delayed reply; I was on vacation when this arrived.  I have
no idea what's going wrong here, but wonder if it is an issue with the
underlying readdir call.  At this point, an strace of the failure might
prove more informative as to what Windows is telling cygwin about the
contents of that directory.  But the strace is likely to be huge.  Maybe
Corinna has some more advice about what to look for?
