I think the best fix is to set res = 0 at the beginning of the loop and to

Does it matter that it is *not* a shortcut for this patch to work?
I first experienced this issue using an actual shortcut, but simplified
the reproduction code.
mkshortcut -n Foo.lnk ... -> touch Foo.lnk
It still works. I'll fix the commit message. [The code in question is actually
checking whether foo.lnk is a shortcut that Cygwin treats as a symlink.]
