Not off the top of my head.  The mechanism doesn't check for the
content so it should cache the above line the same way as any other.
I'm puzzled about this behaviour myself.

That requires some debugging but I have other stuff on my plate atm
so it will take a while(*).  For the time being, use noacl mounts.

(*) Of course, I'd appreciate any other person debugging what happens
    in Cygwin and Cygserver a lot.  We can discuss questions on serious
    debugging efforts on the cygwin-developers mailing list.
