Subject: ls /cygwin: c missing

Hi,

yesterday I upgraded my cygwin installation to version 1.3.12-4 and the 
problem with "ls /cygwin" is still there. I put a floppy disk in drive 
a:, a cd in drive e: and got the following:

bash-2.05b> ls /cygdrive
d  e  f  m  s  u
bash-2.05b> ls -l /cygdrive
total 12
drwxr-xr-x    2 Administ Kein         4096 Jul 29 13:54 d
dr-xr-xr-x    4 Administ Kein            0 Apr 22  2009 e
drwxr-xr-x    1 Administ Kein         4096 Jul 31 07:46 f
drwxr-xr-x    1 Administ Kein            0 Jul 29 17:37 m
drwxr-xr-x   90 Administ Kein            0 Aug  5 16:13 s
drwxr-xr-x    1 Administ Kein         4096 Jul 18 19:44 u
bash-2.05b>

So drives a: and c: are missing. c: is the drive where I installed 
cygwin. It is also very interesting that ls reports the date of the cd 
as being far in the future.

I put the old version 1.3.10 of cygwin1.dll into /bin and got the following:

bash-2.05b> ls /cygdrive
a  c  d  e  f  m  s  u
bash-2.05b> ls -l /cygdrive
total 20
drwxr-xr-x    1 Administ Kein            0 Dec 31  1979 a
drwxr-xr-x   16 Administ Kein         8192 Jul 29 13:54 c
drwxr-xr-x    2 Administ Kein         4096 Jul 29 13:54 d
dr-xr-xr-x    4 Administ Kein            0 Apr 22  2009 e
drwxr-xr-x    1 Administ Kein         4096 Jul 31 07:46 f
drwxr-xr-x    1 Administ Kein            0 Jul 29 17:37 m
drwxr-xr-x    1 Administ Kein            0 Aug  5 16:13 s
drwxr-xr-x    1 Administ Kein         4096 Jul 18 19:44 u
bash-2.05b>

Now all drives are listed. The date of the floppy in a: and the date of 
the cd in e: are wrong. The floppy disk cannot be that old. Perhaps 
someone else is able to reproduce the same bug on his/her pc.

Regards,
Robert
