Take a look at this output, 'cos it ain't right....
$ pwd
/mnt/devserver_e/temp
$ mount
c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts on /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts type
system (binmode)
\\devserver\dev_e_drive on /mnt/devserver_e type system (binmode)

c:\cygwin on / type system (binmode)

$ mkdir temp
$ ls
temp
$ mv * temp
mv: cannot create directory
`temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp':
Invalid argument
