NO!
If you would use the binaries from
ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin32/porters/Vinschen_Corinna/B20
or the patches from the same point and reading the README, you would
have a tcsh, which knows anything about mount points. This is definitely
_not_ a problem of tcsh, since mount points in cygwin are handled
transparent to any application, which is correctly compiled under cygwin.
