Let me throw in a bit more detail: The forbidden characters are mapped
into the Unicode page U+f0XX, which is supposed to be used "for private
purposes". Even more detail can be found here:
https://github.com/cygwin/cygwin/blob/cygwin-3_3_5-release/winsup/cygwin/strfuncs.cc#L19-L23

Now, I have two questions:

- Why does `unzip` not use Cygwin's regular functions (which should all be
  aware of that U+f0XX <-> U+00XX mapping)?

- Even more importantly: would the test case pass if we simply used
  another forbidden character, such as `?` or `*`?

I'd rather avoid changing FUNNYNAMES at this stage, if we can help it.
