This is a long lasting bug that has been around since I started using b18. It
has to do with the mounted directories. In Jerome's case /c and /d. I don't
remember that anything has been done about this recently so if you want it
fixed, download the source via CVS, build your cygwin1.dll with debug symbols,
debug it and submit a patch.
Cheers,
Earnie.
