  A workaround is to create a regular directory, mount the Windows

  example:

    $ mkdir -p /exports/c
    $ mount -f -s -b c:/ /exports/c
    $ echo "/exports/c (ro,all_squash)" >> /etc/exports

Would another possible workaround be just a simple ``mkdir -p /cygdrive/c/cygwin/cygdrive/c'' (this assumes cygwin is installed in c:\cygwin)?

I'd actually appreciate it if someone would actually fix the problem
in cygwin rather than providing workarounds.

But workarounds are useful until then. My suggestion, if it works, will avoid adding an entry into the mount table.
