In bash, after entering posix mode (set -o posix), if the current path is a mounted UNC path, then cd fails. For example:
bash-2.05b$ mount c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts on /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts type system (binmode) \\es-eng-essfile\users\00c3197 on /home/00c3197 type user (binmode) \\es-eng-essfile\hpps on /home/hpps type system (binmode) c:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode) c:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode) c:\cygwin on / type system (binmode) c: on /c type system (binmode) d: on /d type system (binmode) i: on /i type system (binmode) j: on /j type system (binmode) l: on /l type system (binmode,noexec) e: on /cygdrive/e type user (binmode,noumount) f: on /cygdrive/f type user (binmode,noumount) g: on /cygdrive/g type user (binmode,noumount) s: on /cygdrive/s type user (binmode,noumount) bash-2.05b$ pwd /home/hpps bash-2.05b$ cd . bash-2.05b$ set -o posix bash-2.05b$ cd . bash: cd: .: No such file or directorybash: cd: .: No such file or directory This really clobbers configure scripts (which use the POSIX mode).
