I've noticed that when I start up Cygwin if I accidentally leave a cd 
in the cd drive it is automounted to /cygdrive/d as a system mount 
(binmode, noumount) but if there is no cd in the drive I can control 
the mount. 

Should a cd be automounted this way or should it mount but in an 
unmountable setting or should it even automount at all or is this a 
setting  somewhere I have overlooked?

Of course there is always the possibility there is something quirky on 
my system.
