Subject: sh.exe 'cd' doesn't understand '//<drive>/path' notation?

Hi,

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but it looks like the 'cd' command
in Cygnus b19.1 sh.exe doesn't support the //drive/path notation.
Here's what I'm getting:

X:\apps\4.0\Cygnus\b19\H-i386-cygwin32\bin>.\sh
$ cd //c/temp
cd: lstat /c failed

Any suggestions?  Is this a bug?  All the other tools seem to support this
(including bash).

Thanks,
Jason
