I don't think it's the same bug because if I replace copyright.txt with
a single printable character (eg. c), then it works.

Hi Cygwin 1.7 developers,
I think I've encountered bug in cygwin 1.7.0-48 on WinXP 32-bit. It
seems that passing a character on the command line (from either
ash.exe or bash.exe) that is greater than 127 to a native win32
process results in arguments being truncated.
Hopefully you can reproduce and fix. Steps to reproduce outlined below.
$ cat bug.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < argc; i++)
printf("%d: %s\n", i, argv[i]);
return 0;
}
$ xxd copyright.txt
0000000: a9 .
$ $TOOLROOT/bin/cl -I$TOOLROOT/include bug.c /link

bug.obj
$ ./bug "before `cat copyright.txt` after"
0: E:\cygwin1.7\tmp\bug.exe
1: before
Notice that for argument 1, we never see the contents of copyright.txt
and the text after it, "after" is never passed to the win32 native
application.
This sounds allot like this report to me:
