Are you starting from coreutils as downloaded from setup.exe and which
includes coreutils.cygport that will create the necessary
install.exe.manifest needed to work around the naming issues of
install.exe?  Or are you trying to build upstream coreutils.git, in
which case you are missing out on several cygwin-specific patches in the
cygwin distro of coreutils that might prove important in your
investigation of cut?

In general, packages built by cygport should already have the manifest
files created for the problematic names, so that you should be able to
work around the UAC brain-dead name filtering.  It's hard to call it a
FAQ if you are only running into the problem on self-built files, rather
than files that are part of the distro.
