What would you like to see?  Here's a few procman entries captured immediately 
before the breakpoint, and then for the failing NtOpenFile [*]:

MVFS appears to be more of a forwarding file system - requests into MVFS (m:\, 
in my case) are interpreted by the driver and redirected to the backing store 
file system of the view directory.  In my case, foo is unversioned, so it is 
backed by my separate view directory (g:\views\fabt_eblake.vws).

$ df -T /cygdrive/[gm]
Filesystem    Type   1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
G:           smbfs       20480     20480         0 100% /cygdrive/g
M:         unknown     1024000    512000    512000  50% /cygdrive/m

At any rate, it looks like all access to g:\ are due to the MVFS file system 
driver, and I'm hoping that the BUFFER OVERFLOW on QueryAllInformationFile is a 
benign effect within that driver (it certainly does not appear to be due to 
cygwin1.dll).

Next, I'll have to play with your advice to play with the various ShareMode 
flags.

[*] This was my first time using procmon - cool tool!
