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?
