I get a very different behaviour with `cygpath` after I upgrade my version of Cygwin. Why? and how can I fix it?
With Cygwin 2.7:
```
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW CPT 2.7.0(0.306/5/3) 2017-02-12 13:13 i686 Cygwin
$ cygpath --version
cygpath (cygwin) 2.7.0
$ cd /
$ touch foo.exe
$ cygpath -m foo
foo.exe
$ cd
$ touch foo.exe
$ cygpath -m foo
foo
```
latest is 2.8.0-1

In any directory, I see
$ touch foo.exe
$ cygpath -w foo
foo.exe
