which is exactly the same as Cygwin 64 bash:

$ file /bin/bash /proc/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/bash
/bin/bash:                              PE32+ executable (console) x86-64, for MS Windows
/proc/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/bash: PE32+ executable (console) x86-64, for MS Windows

as they are both Windows console exes: Windows "bash" is just the 
launcher for the console in which WSL/UoW/BfW runs -- trust MS to 
pick another wrong and confusing name to be "cute" -- like calling 
mintty "bash".

Take care. Thanks, Brian Inglis, Calgary, Alberta, Canada
