Take a look at this output, 'cos it ain't right....

$ pwd
/mnt/devserver_e/temp
$ mount
c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts on /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts type 
system (binmode)
\\devserver\dev_e_drive on /mnt/devserver_e type system (binmode)
c:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
c:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
c:\cygwin on / type system (binmode)
c: on /mnt/c type system (binmode)
e: on /mnt/e type system (binmode)
$ mkdir temp
$ ls
temp
$ mv * temp
mv: cannot create directory 
`temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp': 
Invalid argument

temp now contains a subdirectory called temp which contains a 
subdirectory called temp...
This doesn't seem to happen on local mounts.
