This means that you can't reliably extract from a tar or zip archive in 
cygwin.
The windoze equivalents do not have this problem.
It looks to me like the approach of equating filenames 'foo' and 'foo.exe' 
is dangerous at the stat(2) level - apparently windoze accomplishes the same 
trick in a much less destructive way.
