The only comment is that all directories with wrong time are mount points, and
they point to the FAT drives (root directory of FAT drives to be precise). I
cannot reproduce it with the same snapshot under Win2k with NTFS. If I mount
d: on /dosd I get correct time. That agrees with your output where NTFS drives
do not have this problem.

So, it smells like Cygwin bug.
