It does, but remember, we're running on a mixed system. Also the problem
is not caused by mixed syntax, the following do not work anymore:
   cd /usr; ls '..\bin'
   cd /; ls 'usr\include'
I think it's good that cygwin used to support this and it should be
reestablished.
Note the following did not even work before, due to mount point issues:
   cd /; ls 'usr\bin'
Not sure whether it's worth fixing that seeming inconsistence as well.
Checking the change log, it might be a side effect of
- Fix a buffer underrun problem in Win32 path normalization.

this might be a starting point to analyse...
