btw,  i think this should go to the FAQ. I've stumbled over this issue
myself some time ago :) Since i all my explicit mounts are binary, and
CYGWIN=binmode,  i've got a nice surprise when i added new disk (which
mounts  as  /cygdrive/h)  and immediately got all those nice text-mode
features. it take me to look at the sources to find out what happened.
