It's a bug in Netapp which you won't be able to workaround in Cygwin. Netapp inode numbers are unstable. This is non-trivial. Hardlinks with different inode numbers will be a major PITA. Unless, of course, this has been fixed. But then again there's no way for Cygwin to know whether it's acessing a fixed Netapp or an older non-fixed one.
