FYI, one can change the default "/cygdrive" to another prefix of their
choice:
$ mount --help
Usage: mount [OPTION] [<win32path> <posixpath>]
...
-c, --change-cygdrive-prefix change the cygdrive path prefix to <posixpath>
...
For example, my systems are configured as follows:
$ mount --show-cygdrive-prefix
Prefix Type Flags
/mnt system binmode
The above may not be affecting Mark, but I suggest that you determine
the user's cygdrive prefix programmatically and do not assume that it is
"/cygdrive".
