I would appreciate some insight on this problem, as it would

The temporary fix is to rename /bin/HEAD to /bin/HEAD.pl (along with the
other two scripts, just for consistency). If it ever gets accepted

Your theory is apparently correct.
One workaround you might try is allowing the sshd service to interact with
the desktop (by checking the appropriate box) and mounting the share as

In non-cygwin unix I'm familiar with being able to do the following in a
shell (bash or other):
