This is a bug in the fileutils packaging (I think). Recently I noticed that "install" has special handling for the .exe extension, and "cp" does not. In the fileutils source tarball I notice there are three files: copy.c copy.c.cgf copy.c.orig
If I replace "copy.c" with either of the other two and rebuild, I get a "cp" which *does* have special handling for the .exe extension. Did the fileutils maintainer just forget to do this? Incidentally, the Cygwin User's Guide specifically claims that "install" won't handle the .exe extension; but currently it does.
