I can't reproduce this issue. While cygwin does do
exe magic, I don't have problems with this.
Add the export works fine:
$ svn export file:///svn/test/exe test_export
A test_export
A test_export/file
A test_export/file/new_sub_file.txt
A test_export/file.exe
Exported revision 30.
Perhaps you are using a old version of cygwin?
