md5sum : strange error message : "invalid option"

I'm getting a strange error message from md5sum: the command has worked fine
in the past. It looks like this:

~> md5sum `find /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/Desktop`
md5sum: invalid option -- M
Try `md5sum --help' for more information.
~>

There's no problem with md5sum `find .` for example. I can't see anything
odd about my desktop, or files on it or under it. In particular, nothing
beginning with a upper-case M.

Any ideas?

Fergus
