There's no official support.
However, use whatever you want. You can even change your /cygdrive
prefix:
mount --change-cygdrive-prefix /foo
mkdir -p /foo/d/lala/lolo
or
mount --change-cygdrive-prefix /
mkdir -p /d/lala/lolo
or add a specific mount point
mount D: /bar
mkdir /bar/lala/lolo
Just dont use //d/lala/lolo except `d' is the name of a SMB server.
