I see your point. However, prior to 1.5 the mount table worked (i.e.,
determined the file mode) even if the path started with "C:", as far as
I understand.
If you set CYGWIN=textmode then that would mean that windows-style
paths would be treated as text-mounts.
Is there a way to specify that _some_ windows-style paths are to be
treated as text-mounts, and others as binary?
