I discovered a read-only filesystem called /proc/mounts which is 
symbolically linked from /etc/mtab.

My question is: who populates this data??

I got a cyclic-loop caused by drive C being mounted twice.  as /c  and 
/cygdrive/c  I would like to get rid of the cygdrive one but it is 
special treatment when logoff.
