So if you have no way to verify anything then it sounds like it would be
speculation by definition.  Speculation isn't a bad word but speculating
doesn't actually do any good until someone can confirm the speculation.
Since I doubt that anyone here is going to download emacs to satisfy a
speculation that cygwin's API is broken, we obviously need more details
from people who care about this.

i.e.:

So, basically you're saying "a little more work" is required.
