Hello,

Since cygwin1.dll version 3.1.5, I observed the following behavior:
If a symbolic link is existing in the PATH environment, programs (external from 
Cygwin's system directory) using cygwin1.dll cannot be executed anymore.
Possibly, because the Cygwin-DLL isn't found anymore.

Steps to reproduce:

cd /
mkdir link_test
cp /usr/bin/sed.exe link_test
ln -s link_test test
export PATH=/test:/link_test:/usr/bin:/bin

/link_test/sed cannot be executed
$ ldd /link_test/sed
          ntdll.dll => /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/ntdll.dll (0x7ffffd960000)
          KERNEL32.DLL => /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/System32/KERNEL32.DLL 
(0x7ffffd140000)
          KERNELBASE.dll => /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/System32/KERNELBASE.dll 
(0x7ffffa8e0000)
          SYSFER.DLL => /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/System32/SYSFER.DLL (0x550c0000)

-> no cygwin- DLLs found

I think this was fixed by commit 4b4fffe0f2390be6a5be27b6a3ceaa212a3724b2, but I
don't have time to check carefully, and I'm going to be AFK for a few days
starting tomorrow.
I can reproduce this issue with current git head even with
the commit 4b4fffe0f2390be6a5be27b6a3ceaa212a3724b2.
Just looking into it.  It has something to do with missing to resolve
a WSL symlinks to a Windows path, but I'm not sure yet where this occurs.
Actually I confirmed the issue too and I did not have to involve WSL, cygwin ln -s led to the behaviour.
