That's probably because the file is exclusively locked, and the "stat"
performed by "ls" fails.
See if you see the file if you pass in the "-f" option to ls:
$ ls -f tsdiscon.exe tsecimp.exe
If you can, then this is the issue. Looks like CMD.EXE is able to
examine whatever it needs from such files, but stat() in the cygwin
library cannot (uses different APIs).
I see similar behavior in a file that PointSec drops in my C:\\
(PROT_INS.SYS). In fact, even "ls -f" is not able to get any info on
that file!
% cmd /c dir /AH c:\\prot_ins.sys
