Thanks.  I don't see anything obvious there.  I tried reproducing
your problem on 3 machines I have here, 2 at 1.7.25 and 1 at 1.7.17.
They all showed all the drives, including the subst'd drive, in
both Cygwin and outside.  I'm not sure why you're seeing what you're
seeing.  Perhaps if you look at the output of strace when
running from cmd.exe outside of bash, this will shed some light on
why R is being ignored?
