nwfs is not one of the supported filesystem types.  The capabilities of
several filesystems are tricky to keep under control, given that the
reported properties are sometimes outright lies.

First of all, to get this fixed in the next Cygwin release, please
install the csih package via setup, if you don't already have it.  Then
run the tool

  /usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo X: 

with X being all of F, G, P, Y, and Z, and paste the output of all
the commands into your reply.

Second, please run one single `strace -o ls.trace ls /mnt/f' and
attach the ls.trace file to your reply as well.
