Associating this thread with a related thread...
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-03/msg00418.html
... it's not clear to me what the correct results are,
so I wouldn't know whether I'm looking at a bug or not.
As I indicated in this other thread, there appears to
be little explanation as to how it should work, so 
how can we judge if it is working correctly?
