RE: cd /d/somedir fails, but cd /d; cd somedir works


Various people have sent helpful suggestions.

0.  I am running cygwin 1.1.1 and so I will later upgrade to 1.1.2 to see if
that solves the cd /d/somedir problem.  In the meantime I see some other
anomalies, I am hoping that one of these is the cause of my "Permission
denied" problem 
described in earlier emails, for which I still do not have any workaound.

Summary: I get Permission denied from gcc, rcsdiff, and sort.  The first two
are forking another process to do the IO, e.g. gcc runs cpp.exe which is
what actually reports the problem.
1927/> TMP=/
1928/> gcc a.c
cpp.exe: /cc7nEycW.i: Permission denied
This same failure happens even if I set TMP to a textmode device.
I am completely stuck on this.
1929/> echo $CYGWIN
ntsec tty notitle

1.  I do not have unmount anywhere in my path?  Why not?
1924/> unmount /e
bash: unmount: command not found

2.  The output of the mount command shows that C: is binmode rather than
textmode.  Is this a problem?
Device              Directory           Type         Flags
C:\bin              /usr/bin            user         binmode
C:\lib              /usr/lib            user         binmode
d:                  /d                  user         textmode
f:                  /f                  user         textmode
C:                  /                   user         binmode
e:                  /e                  user         textmode

3. cygcheck -h -r -s -v shows that some mount points end with a space and
others end with a slash.  Why is this?

4. strace also shows some oddities.  If this is consistent with the bug that
was fixed in 1.1.2 please let me know.  If it is another problem please let
me know.

As I said I am not yet on 1.1.2 but the strace output also seems somewhat
odd.
It starts:

What is that failure all about?  It worries me.

Here is the end of strace shows the following when I tried 
cd /f/_mybin (which fails with
