Unless you can point to problems with a standard, supported W2K filesystem,
please don't expect anyone to try to fix this.

Cygwin uses standard Win32 APIs for detemining if something is a
directory.  If those APIs are not working for Clearcase then it
is unlikely that anyone will be motivated to fix the problem on
the Cygwin side.
