Thanks for the response.  I will try your suggestion.
I must admit I find the "mount" behavior confusing to
say the least.  I have tried in the past to set up
different trees for C: - one with default DOS file
handling, the other with UNIX behavior (see below).
It is baffling to me how cygwin decides which tree
you're in.  But that's another issue.
  
I have installed cygwin on D: because
my company retains control of what goes on the C:
drives of our PC's.  I will be happy to use whatever
mount scheme works for cygwin installed on D:

bash$ mount
Device           Directory           Type        Flags
C:               /                   native      text!=binary
bash$ cd /WINNT/system32
bash$ pwd
/WINNT/system32
bash$ mount -b c: /cb
Warning: /cb does not exist!
bash$ mount
Device           Directory           Type        Flags
c:               /cb                 native      text=binary
C:               /                   native      text!=binary
bash$ pwd
/WINNT/system32
bash$ //d/cygnus/cygwin-b20/H-i586-cygwin32/bin/pwd
/cb/WINNT/system32
bash$ cd /WINNT/system32
bash$ //d/cygnus/cygwin-b20/H-i586-cygwin32/bin/pwd
/cb/WINNT/system32
bash$
