This is actually false.  The official FAQ mentions it as well
here<https://cygwin.com/faq.html#faq.api.globbing>.

I went on to investigate what's the issue, but I can't replicate it.
Things like the console code page, the system code

could be at play, but I don't see why it would behave like this.
