The real directory is causing find to recurse into the /cygdrive/* hierarchy, and that, in turn, causes the internal loop error. Note that if you had a c:\bwinrcb file, it would be found with the real /cygdrive directory, and not found without it (using your command). Also note that in the new versions of Cygwin (probably 1.5.19), /cygdrive will be listed in "/" even if it's a virtual directory. Also, all of what you've described in your message is normal expected behavior.
