This simple example illustrate problem with using native symlinks.
$ export CYGWIN=winsymlinks:nativestrict
$ mkdir bld && mkdir source && touch source/srcfile && ln -s
../source/srcfile bld/bldfile
$ ls -l bld
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alexey None 10 Jun 17 08:29 bldfile -> ce/srcfile
/\/\
Instead "source/srcfile" it resolved as "ce/srcfile"
This happen if I remove cygdrive folder from Cygwin root and add line
to /etc/fstab:
none / cygdrive binary,posix=0,noacl,user 0 0
Regards,
Alexey.

Thanks for the report. I applied a patch which should fix this issue.
I'm just uploading a new developer snapshot 2013-06-17 to
http://cygwin.com/snapshots/, as well as a new 64 bit Cygwin test
release 1.7.21-4. Please give one of them a try.
Thanks,
Corinna

Try this (with CYGWIN=winsymlinks:nativestrict):
$ mkdir zoo
$ touch zoo/foo
$ ln -s zoo/foo zoo.x
$ ls -l zoo.x
expected result:
lrwxrwxrwx X YYYY ZZZZ AA BBB CC HH:MM zoo.x -> zoo/foo
actual result:
lrwxrwxrwx X YYYY ZZZZ AA BBB CC HH:MM zoo.x -> foo
happens at least when name (minus extension) of the symlink is the same
as the name of the first component (i.e. directory name) of the target.
