Subject:	Configurable behaviour when remapping cygdrive - please!

Hi!

First of all: Thanks for the great work you have done!

I've just been bitten by the new behaviour in ver. 1.3.6 regarding the 
cygdrive "directory". I have everything working again, thanks to other 
postings on this list.

I must admit, that I *really* liked to be able to say

mount -c /

such that all my drives -- including those mapped to network drives -- 
were automagically mapped to /c, /d, /w etc.

I therefore suggest that the behaviour is made configurable, e.g. by an 
environment variable, such that the default is the "old" behaviour where 
/cygdrive was not "cd-able". Is that possible and acceptable?

Best regards

	Rune Enggaard Jensen
