Hi Andrey,
Happy New (Grigorian) Year!
Maybe show us a standalone script command line execution, script 
execution trace (like -xv), failing command line expansion, failure 
messages, Cygwin permissions of relevant components, and Cygwin 
installation status of all the components (or cygcheck -hrsv log).
I don't know what Localization.lua is and showing Windows perms of it 
has to do with anything you described, but it looks like it may no 
longer have Cygwin perms, so maybe fill in some blanks here also.
