The eCos source tree, build tree and install tree should all be under text 
mode mounts. It does not matter if these are user mode (specific to one 
user) or system mode (seen by all users) mounts. The configtool should 
create these mount points as necessary. The underlying problem in this case 
is that you are using an old version of the configtool which assumes that 
the Cygwin 'mount' command uses text mode by default. This assumption is no 
longer valid.

The latest version of the configtool (shipped with eCos 2.0) forces the 
mount command to use text mode. I recommend that you use the Cygwin 
'umount' command to remove any /ecos-* mounts created by the old configtool 
and then switch to using the eCos 2.0 configtool.
