According to Stanislav Petrovsky on 8/7/2008 5:38 AM:
|> mkdir testdir1
|> echo test > file1.exe
|> ln file1.exe file2.exe
|> mv file1 file2 testdir1
| mv: cannot remove `file2': No such file or directory
|
| The same mv command with full file names works correctly
|> mv file1.exe file2.exe testdir1
|
| as .exe adding is a cygwin feature - issue posted here.

You got the right place.  Thanks for the report, I'll take a look into it
(although no promise of how long before I try to re-release coreutils 6.10
for cygwin 1.5.x, as I am currently more focused on the upcoming coreutils
7.0 for cygwin 1.7.0).
