If you examine the HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT/Software registry
key you will find a "Cygnus Solutions" subkey there.
For some reason you have a root mount point in the
"Cygwin/mounts v2" subkey. I had the same situation
a few months ago but was unable to figure out when (and
why) that happened. I believe it's remaining from a previous
b20 installation, perhaps.

Anyway, you get rid of that phenomenon if you delete that
mount point with RegEdit by yourself.
