i shall raise attention that since mount points are stored in the 
registry, it is not necessary to mount them everytime you start cygwin 
window. in fact, i think it might be undesirable put them in cygwin.bat. 
that said, i shall suggest you to remove the `mount` commands from 
cygwin.bat ... you only need to manually mount them once, and it's there.

doesn't mount complain everytime you run cygwin.bat to bring up the 
console window?
