Problem with cp to a directory

Hello,

While attempting to port a number of scripts from MKS to the latest cygwin download, something like 

cp c:\\temp\\tmt.c tcp 

is executed (tcp is a directory). 

This returns 

cp: cannot create regular file `tcp/c:\\temp\\tmt.c': No such file or directory 

When using a target file or Unix style paths, it all works fine. 

Is this a known issue or intended behavior? Thanks for any suggestions. 

Peter
