It's time for a lesson in cygwin internals.

What associates the root of a filesystem??

I'm getting an invalid value for "/".  i.e.  When I do a "cd /", it will 
fail.  I will get the error message: "cd: / - No such file or 
directory".  Obviously there is something in the environment it doesn't 
like.  The current directory is at what the new root *should* be.  I'm 
running the latest Cygwin 1.7.1-1
