It seems to be creating files that cygwin cannot thereafter open.

$ perl -we'use Fcntl; use DB_File; tie %h, "DB_File", "bugaboo", O_RDWR()|O_CREAT(), 0666 or die "error: $!"'
Name "main::h" used only once: possible typo at -e line 1.
error: No such file or directory at -e line 1.

$ ls *bugaboo*
ls: __db.bugaboo.: No such file or directory

$ rm *bugaboo*
rm: cannot remove `__db.bugaboo.': No such file or directory

$ cmd /c ' dir *bugaboo*'
 Volume in drive C has no label.
