Actually, since Samuel mentioned snapshots, I have been testing the
latest ones (currently 20050825), and something strange *is* happening...
but no hangs like he reported, and I can't seem to narrow the strangeness
down yet.  Has something change in how mount points are resolved?

For instance, I have the following mounts
  C:\users -> /home
  C:\ -> /c

When I try to cd to /home it says there's no /c/home path
An strace shows the following:

9807 8921240 [main] zsh 3436 mount_info::conv_to_posix_path: conv_to_posix_path (/home, keep-rel, no-add-slash)
1401 8922641 [main] zsh 3436 normalize_win32_path: C:\home = normalize_win32_path (/home)
1381 8924022 [main] zsh 3436 mount_info::conv_to_posix_path: /c/home = conv_to_posix_path (/home)

Note that there is no /c/home or even c:\home dir.

Where as, with 1.5.13 (sorry, it's an older version, but it works): I see:

9670 7488797 [main] zsh 3536 mount_info::conv_to_posix_path: conv_to_posix_path (/home, keep-rel, no-add-slash)
1275 7490072 [main] zsh 3536 normalize_win32_path: \home = normalize_win32_path (/home)
1804 7491876 [main] zsh 3536 mount_info::conv_to_posix_path: /home = conv_to_posix_path (/home)

It appears that the normalize_win32_path has changed it semantics.
Thoughts?
