If you setup non-interoperable custom locales, it is likely that Cygwin 
may not be seeing anything it can map, so will default to the hardwired 
built-in C/POSIX locale.

You need to help us diagnose what, if anything, Cygwin may be seeing 
from your custom Windows locale.

What does Cygwin show when you run the locale dump command from a shell:

     $ for o in -s -u -i -n -f ''; do locale $o; done

It might also help if you followed the Cygwin problem reporting guidelines:

	https://cygwin.com/problems.html

and attached the required output as plain text to your next response.
