Somehow the way to setup the default locale has changed; raising
problems as described in
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2016-10/msg00000.html .
This affects also bash (without -l). It is "healed" per /etc/profile.
However, in all previous versions since 1.7 UTF-8 was the official
default deployed from the cygwin DLL already, so calling cygwin apps
from a Windows command line would work as expected, which is a valid use
case. I don't think this change was on purpose.

Maybe it slipped in here?
