Not really. It was a developer decision -- not just Chris' alone. Long
ago it was determined that the "//x" notation was causing big problems;
in addition to preventing access to external SMB hosts named with single
letters, IIRC there were network latencies introduced into what should
be a local operation. Search the archives from about 1 year ago for
"why is 'ls' so slow".
So, the '//x' notation has been deprecated for quite a long time.
Deprecated means "will be going away soon. Begin transitioning away
from this usage or you'll be sorry later."
It's now "later".

Ummm...you didn't show your link command. Are you using -lcygipc ?
-L/usr/local/lib ?
