I have reinstalled cygwin, just in case. Tried the commands above, it 
does work but only for /tmp. Anything else does not work. To compare 
stuff, I tried to configure, build and install curl. It does work with 
/usr/local.

I will raise a bug with asciidoc. Very annoying, I have wasted to much 
for this.

Thank you very much for your help,

Michael
