That's what I supposed, but thanks for the confirmation.

OK, will modify it ASAP (which can be a while, graduation thesis
deadline in less than 2 weeks...).

BTW: would this only be useful to gamin or could be useful enough to
be included in cygwin1.dll?
After all knowing the "possibilities" (i.e. the presence of
permissions, the granularity of mtime) of a mount can be useful elsewhere?
In that case just let me know and I will adapt the patch to apply
there and change the one to gamin (I already have done the copyright
assignment).
