Executables fail to run when they are named as 'setlang.exe'

Hi

I've noticed that executables fail to run when they are named as
'setlang.exe'.

Is this a known problem, or something related to BLODA ?


* Example 1) This will output 'no'.

```
cp /usr/bin/ls setlang
./setlang && echo ok || echo no
```


* Example 2) This will output 'ok' and 'no'.

```
echo "int main () {}" > z.c
gcc z.c
cp a setlang
./a && echo ok || echo no
./setlang && echo ok || echo no
```

In my environment, `uname -srvmo` is:
CYGWIN_NT-10.0 3.1.7(0.340/5/3) 2020-08-22 17:48 x86_64 Cygwin


Regards,

Lem
