(CYGWIN_NT-6.1 spirit 3.1.1(0.340/5/3) 2019-12-18 09:28 x86_64 Cygwin, win7)

The windows root is C:, cygwin root is on F:.
A native symlink under C: that points into F: gets
an incorrect result from cygpath -wa.

Notice that when the current directory is the target of the symlink
then the result is ok. But any deeper in the tree fails. To summarize:

     @ /a/src/jvi-dev/jvi
$ cygpath -wa .
C:\f\src\jvi-dev\jvi <<<<<<< correct
     @ /a/src/jvi-dev/jvi/src
$ cygpath -wa .
C:\a\src\jvi-dev\jvi\src <<<<<<< fail

=== more detail ===

     @ /a/src/jvi-dev
$ ls -l jvi
lrwxrwxrwx 1 erra None 18 Dec 23 15:16 jvi -> /f/src/jvi-dev/jvi

     @ /a/src/jvi-dev
$ junction jvi
