I think you looked with a Windows tool -- you need to look
using Cygwin, since it is a Cygwin mount point.  Open
up a bash window and cd there and see if you see the "cygwin" file.

You will want to add "ntsec" if you are using NTFS,
and maybe "binmode" also.  Do a google search for these words and
CYGWIN to see what they do.

This is probably not good -- you have stuff in d:\bin shadowing
Cygwin stuff.
