First of all, thanks for the work.

Here some "benchmark" results, (The test run of the test suite did the same amout of time).

But:
git status -uno in real life takes double the time,
git 1.8.3 compared against "pu with the vanilla l/stat"
   
    1 second ->  2 seconds on linux kernel
0.2 seconds -> 0.4 seconds on git.git

Do we have any known problems with the current implementation ? Does speed matter ?

One vote to keep the special cygwin functions. (And have a look how to improve the core.filemode)
