It is my understanding that given relative input, "cygpath" shall produce
relative output unless given "-a" option. However I noticed a discrepancy. These
are all correct:

    $ cygpath .
    .

    $ cygpath ..
    ..

    $ cygpath -w .
    .

This is not:

    $ cygpath -w ..
    C:\cygwin64\home\
