Is your source in some other location besides the "root" directory
tree?  I know Emacs' gud.el gets confused by cygwin's drive letter
mechanism ("//drive-letter/path").  

(I'd give up on the ability to have single-letter directories in my
root dir in exchange for being able to just say /drive-letter/path.)
