1.7.5-1: cp: skipping file `xxx', as it was replaced while being copied (again)


I know, this has been reported before.  I searched the archive and it 
was suggested that upgrading to 1.7.5 would fix the problem, but 
apparently not in my case.

I am running WindowsXPx64 and 
cygwin.dll 1.7.5-1.  I'm attempting to copy a file from a Tandem system 
(stop laughing) running Samba (stop laughing). and get the error:
  
cp: skipping file `//tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg', as it 
was replaced while being copied

I tried listing the inode number 
and it still seems to change between each try.  Something like:

D:\dev>ls -i //tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg
18446738026459551968 
//tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg

D:\dev>ls -i 
//tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg
18446738026451034128 //tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg
 
I have another (older) system running Cygwin on 32 bit windows and Cygwin 1.5.25(0.156/4/2) and it 
seems to work fine.  I also tried this on a 32 bit VM running WindowsXP 
and 1.7.5-1, hosted on the same 64 bit system where it fails and it 
works there as well, but does not work on a similar VM with 64 bit XP 
and 1.7.5.  Looks like this is an issue with 1.7.x and 64 bit windows.

Any suggestions on what to try would be appreciated, 
otherwise I will have to go back to 1.5.25.

Thanks.
