B20.1: bash getopts?

Environment: Cygwin 20.1 beta, WinNT 4.0 build 1381 sp 4
I'm trying to run a bash script which uses getopts under cygwin. The
script works on my linux box, but reports 'getopts not found' under
cygwin. The bash help list getopts as a valid built-in command. The
script in question can be reduced to :
#/bin/bash
#
while getopts ab flag
do
case "$flag" in
a) echo "Flag a";;
b) echo "Flag b";;
?) echo "Flag unknown";;
esac
done
I could not find any scripts in the bin directory that use getopts.
Should it work? Or is the help incorrect?
