Sorry... now I got one case of success (with call-process, not dired),
but this means that my error is not systematic, only very frequent.
And that it may work with the 1.7 root as well...

(call-process "/usr/bin/ls" nil t "-la" "--" "/cygdrive/c/cygwin2/tmp/bar")
/cygdrive/c/cygwin2/tmp/bar
0

Got that only with one file, never with the directory.
But also now with "/tmp/bar".

So, I may be back to the bloda theory, and the question how to identify
the precise problem, so that I can report it to my Windows support...
