This seems like a real shot in the dark to me. What would not be
terminating a truncated command line? Cygwin? That's not likely.
AFAIK, only very recent CVS versions of binutils take '@' command line
arguments, although cygwin will honor them itself for processes which
are not started by a cygwin process. I don't see any indication that
this is the problem here.
If this is a command-line length problem then something like:
mount -X -b c:/cygwin/bin /bin
mount -X -b c:/cygwin/bin /usr/bin
would probably fix it.
