Didn't work:

$ ls /cygdrive/
c  d  e

$ regtool get /HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Policies/System/EnableLinkedConnections

Is Windows 10 the same?

No, still seeing the failure in the snapshot:

$ ./stat-size-test.exe /cygdrive/y/foo ~/foo
/cygdrive/y/foo: fstat: st_size=0
/cygdrive/y/foo: stat: st_size=12
/home/jonathan/foo: fstat: st_size=12
/home/jonathan/foo: stat: st_size=12

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-10.0 Vidyo-LT0519-10 2.3.0(0.291/5/3) 2015-11-02 11:15 x86_64 Cygwin

(See https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-04/msg00488.html for the source code
to stat-size-test.c).

Oddly, though, the original problematic behavior I saw in emacs (with it
falsely detecting files as being modified externally) has gone away. Maybe
emacs added a workaround for this?
