Works for me under Windows 7, doesn't work under Windows 8.1, not even in Explorer. I don't know why. I'm not familiar with the implementation of the tsclient stuff. It's certainly not something in Cygwin which would be different between Windows versions. The code to access UNC paths is entirely OS-agnostic.
