Certain files in Windows/System32 are invisible in Cygwin

This is a strange problem: certain files in the Windows/System32
directory are not visible from Cygwin:
Studio(27): ls /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/nbtstat.exe
ls: cannot access /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/nbtstat.exe: No
such file or directory
But other ones are:
Studio(28): ls /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/PING.EXE
/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/PING.EXE
The system in question is Windows 7 64-bit (service pack 1), running
Cygwin 1.7.9-1. I've tried it with and without user access control
enabled, but it doesn't make a difference. CYGWIN is set to
"nodosfilewarning tty".
The problematic file (nbtstat.exe) most definitely exists and can be
run from a DOS prompt window.
Any ideas? Thanks!
