I'll take a look into that; it may be that the cygwin .exe magic in
install is not doing the right thing when following symlinks, especially
since the error message includes ".exe".  Meanwhile, does the problem
still exist if you try the experimental coreutils-5.93-1? (Note, you will
have to have a recent cygwin snapshot installed to try it.)
