printf: %ls or %S does not work when string is of length 1.

Hello,
it seems that cygwin does not correctly handle the %ls format when the
given string
has only one character.
The following program should print
Test 1 (T)
and that's what it does on Linux 64bit and Windows, when compiled with VS8.0
But cygwin's output is
Test 1
I've seen this only for 1-wchar strings.
This is will be a problem with the upcoming python 3.0 interpreter, as
reported here:
http://bugs.python.org/issue3626
Is there a problem with cygwin's implementation, or did I miss
something obvious?
/* ======================================== */
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
wchar_t text[] = L"T";
printf("Test %d (%ls)\n", wcslen(text), text);
}
/* ======================================== */
