How do you check for the cygdrive?  I'm wondering if this shouldn't
be the other way around, something along these lines:

  cygwin_internal (CW_GET_CYGDRIVE_INFO);
  cygdrive_prefix = user[0] ? user : system;
  len = strlen (cygdrive_prefix);
  if (!strncmp (incoming_path, cygdrive_prefix, len)
      && incoming_path[len] == '/')
    // cygdrive, we have all info
  else
    // Do the getmntent chores
