you can no longer use mixed cygwin paths as dependancies in a makefile
any more. for example, the following lines in a makefile fail:
mytarget: C:/windows
echo hello world
running make on the above 2-line makefile yields the error:

Hello all,
Cygwin by default maps all the local hard drives (C:, D:) to
c: on /cygdrive/c type user (binmode,noumount)
d: on /cygdrive/d type user (binmode,noumount)
Is it possible for us to change the mount name to something other than
cygdrive say cyd. Example
c: on /cyd/c type user
