Interesting issue. I think it stems from me using the wimsymlinks:lnk 
option as documented at: 
https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html

I use this as a program I package up with Cygwin needs to be easily 
portable and installable, and I couldn't get this to work without that 
option. I don't think this should matter either way, but someone else 
feel free to chime in and correct me.
