Looking at the install log, I see this timestamp matches the time the
bash.sh postinstall was run, so it would have been this snippet which
did it, I imagine:

  # Install /dev/fd, /dev/std{in,out,err}.  The bash builtin test was compiled
  # to assume these exist, so use /bin/test to really check.
  DEVDIR="$(cygpath -au "C:/$(cygpath -am /dev/)" | sed 's|/c/\(.\):/|/\1/|')"
  mkdir -p "$DEVDIR" || result=1
