Check your PATH settings, probably you're not using Cygwin's
/usr/bin/tail.exe
$ tail CPANTEST.RPT
ld='ld2', ldflags =' -s -L/usr/local/lib'
libpth=/usr/local/lib /usr/lib /lib
libs=-lgdbm -lcrypt -lutil
perllibs=-lcrypt -lutil
libc=/usr/lib/libc.a, so=dll, useshrplib=true, libperl=libperl.a
gnulibc_version=''
Dynamic Linking:
dlsrc=dl_dlopen.xs, dlext=dll, d_dlsymun=undef, ccdlflags=' -s'
cccdlflags=' ', lddlflags=' -s -L/usr/local/lib'
$ cp CPANTEST.RPT CPANTEST.RPTnot8.3.format
$ tail CPANTEST.RPTnot8.3.format
ld='ld2', ldflags =' -s -L/usr/local/lib'
