Hello,

I am experiencing the same issue with tar and I am able to reproduce it following the steps at:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2011-08/msg00006.html

This issue only appears to occur when using 32-bit Cygwin, I am unable to reproduce it using 64-bit Cygwin. I need to use 32-bit Cygwin since I use a 32-bit application which depends on Cygwin.

This should be fixed.

Regards,

Morgan
