Sorry to be possibly intruding here... But with 1.5.25-11 and
both LC_CTYPE=C-UTF-8 CYGWIN=codepage:utf8 a simple command
like ls only seems to be displaying in the locale codepage...
Am I doing something wrong or is the support still limited?
(I also tried seeting LC_ALL to see if it made any difference, but nothing did)
