problem/question with 'ls /' -- returns nothing

[Paul Raines <raines at SLAC dot Stanford dot EDU>]

I just installed version 17.1 of the gnu-win32 utilities.
Seems to work fine except for problems I assume are related
to the mount command.  For example, doing 'ls /' takes 
several seconds and gives no output.

======================================================================
C:\>mount
Device           Directory           Type        Flags
\\.\tape1:       /dev/st1            native      no-mixed,text!=binary
\\.\tape0:       /dev/st0            native      no-mixed,text!=binary
\\.\b:           /dev/fd1            native      no-mixed,text!=binary
\\.\a:           /dev/fd0            native      no-mixed,text!=binary
c:               /                   native      no-mixed,text!=binary

C:\>ls c:/

C:\>ls /

C:\>
======================================================================

I have also noted that filename completion on bash often
fails to work, which may be related.
