|   posix=1   - Switch on case sensitivity for paths under this mount point

Thanks, Jan.  I was actually looking at that page, and totally glossed
over the posix switch.  Will try it (the machine is elsewhere).

I realize that cygdrive maps all the letter drives, but I'm trying to
cut down on the typed text.
