Fixed in cygutils-1.3.4-1 (and cygutils-1.3.4-10 for 1.7), which should
be on the mirrors soon.  Thanks for the report.  Your hint made it
obvious what the problem was: the libtool "wrapper" executable was being
installed for the u2d, d2u, unix2dos, and dos2unix aliases -- while the
"real" program was installed for conv.exe.  This was a long-standing
bug, BUT it was not exposed until, in 1.3.3, I upgraded to libtool-2.2.x
from libtool-1.5.x.
