The complete string "domain+samaccountname" is the Cygwin username,
see the output of `getent passwd <user>' The entire Cygwin username
should always use the same case, otherwise case sensitive pattern
matching on the name returned in the passwd name field won't work.

Play with `getent passwd' with the latest and the previous Cygwin
DLL.  That should give you an idea.
