Hello,

I noticed this before, but since the solution is simple,
though a little bit annoying, I did not mention it.

I think this is also only an issue for people who use
cygwin from a shared drive, and the shared drive
comes from Samba, not native Windows.

Anyhow, I have to recreate manually all symbolic
links, and I have to delete all Windows shortcuts
from my directories, because they do not work.

Regards,

Jurgen
