Yeah, I've seen this before.  Some drivers for built-in SD-card readers 
use *special* drivers that somehow avoid having the raw device visible 
in the normal way.  The way I got around it was to use an external, 
USB-based card reader.  IIRC, the raw disk device doesn't even show up 
in the disk manager application (under the XP Administrative Tools 
control panel program), which means this is probably not a cygwin bug.
