Perhaps. In particular, if one uses Windows mode (instead of mixed mode) you get the result I think you were expecting (except, of course, for the orientation of the name separators).
Witness:
% cygpath -d /cygdrive/d/Documents\ and\ Settings/ d:\DOCUME~1\
% cygpath -lm "d:\DOCUME~1\" cygpath -lm "d:\DOCUME~1\" d:/DOCUME~1/
% cygpath -w "d:\DOCUME~1\" d:\DOCUME~1\
% cygpath -lw "d:\DOCUME~1\" d:\Documents and Settings\

My reading of the cygpath documentation and embedded help is that:
cygpath -ml /cygdrive/c/docume~1
or:
cygpath --mixed --long-name /cygdrive/c/docume~1
should output:
c:/Documents and Settings
Of course:
cygpath --mixed "$(cygpath --windows --long-name /cygdrive/c/docume~1)"
does yields the correct results.
Isn't this a bug in 'cygpath'?
