I have English Win2k with Russian locale set, and russian characters are
shown as ? in ls output. While this is definitely Cygwin problem, Zsh
(often) completely hangs when completing such name ... sorry, it just
takes hours (well, a bit less :-) to give listing. It is so slow, that I
really had impression it was hung.
E.g.
mw1g017@MW1G17C:/cygdrive/d/temp% ls
mozilla-win32-M16-talkback.zip ???????
zsh ???????
?????? ???? ???????
???? ?????
mw1g017@MW1G17C:/cygdrive/d/temp% ls ^Tизбор/
Completing file
\M-^B\M-(\M-'\M-!\M-.\M-`/
\M-^D\M-n\M--\M-
\M-\n\M- \M-!\M- \M-*\M-.\M-"
\M-^O\M-%\M-+\M-%\M-"\M-(\M--

\M-+\M-%\M--\M-*\M- /

zsh/
The "real" contents is (for those, who can display russian characters at
all :-):
D:\TEMP>dir
Volume in drive D has no label.

While figuring out environ problem, I got a look at locale
implementation in Cygwin. There is no :-) setlocale() is just a stub
function that accepts "C" as locale name and nothing more. It does
nothing :-))) And locale table contains only ASCII support. So, I
wonder, how can it work correclty even for ISO-8859-1 charset.

I can only try on unix with latin-1, of course, and there it works
nicely.
Do you have printeightbit set? That should only affect the display,
though.
