To avoid problems, you shouldn't mount directories from the same
partition, if it isn't absolutely nescessary.
Instead use

Device                       Directory     Type        Flags
D:\devel\gnuwin32\cygwin-b20 /             native      text!=binary

and then
ln -s //d/temp /tmp

and use //d/ instead of /d
