It would be nice if cygwin could be more proactive in recognizing : as
invalid in non-managed mounts, rather than passing the : on to the Windows
filename functions, in order to avoid the creation of undeletable filenames
such as ".new." via the help of a colon, but I can live with the current
behavior if adding such a check would slow down the common case.
The latter affect is certainly the case here though, as usual, I'm sure
it's a PTC if someone has a great brainstorm for a way to do this without
the overhead.
