More than that: Cygwin doesn’t contain an SMB client.  (I mean, not at the 
cygwin1.dll level.)  It is just using what Windows gives it.

That’s why I’m grasping at straws like the path error in the strace output, 
since the only thing that makes sense to me is a problem in the way Cygwin is 
interpreting what it gets from Windows, rather than the SMB protocol peers 
doing the wrong thing.

I suppose it could be that Windows Explorer and cygwin1.dll are making 
different NT kernel syscalls, and that explains the problem.  Lacking a “real” 
strace on Windows, I’m not sure how to test that.  Maybe Process Monitor could 
do this?
