| Yes.  The munging of file names happens only for files created

| mounts prior to the mount are not supported.  Try 'cp' instead.

Or help out, by writing a patch to cygwin1.dll that returns EXDEV when
attempting to rename(2) directories across managed mount points, rather
than letting rename continue.
