No, I can reproduce it using an XP client and a remote directory on my
2K8 domain controller. Examining the strace output from wget, you can
see that wget tries to delete the file while still having a file mapping
open. That's the problem. Windows doesn't allow to delete remote files
with an open file mapping. I don't know any way around that.
In theory, wget would have to be fixed to not do that on Cygwin.
