Thanks for the answer but it doesn't help me ;) I would beliefe one of the cygwin libraries must read and interpret the ntfs_reparse_data because cygwin will display it's content as an posix soft link. So it would possible that getfattr can read this data too and the only reason it don't work for me is a mistake by myself. What did you mean with "You're looking the wrong way"?
