Erm... you have to use the /qnx path, rather than /cygdrive/q:

   cp /qnx/knellis/xyz xyz
   cat /qnx/knellis/xyz > xyz

Other than that, cat doesn't perform the same integrity checks as cp.

No idea when and where this changed, sorry.  Out of curiosity, what's
the output of `mount'?  Does it recognize /cygdrive/q as smbfs or as
ntfs?
