Sorry for the misinformation.  You need to add an entry for /usr/bin
to /etc/fstab if you want to override it.  And, on checking the code
that I wrote and didn't remember, you don't have to use the override
option.

The entry that you used in your previous mail was not correctly formatted.

It should be something like:

f:/cygwin_1.7/usr/bin /usr/bin ntfs binary 0 0
