See the User's Guide here:
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table

Try to mount the Q: drive with the "ihash' option, for instance:

  $ cat >> /etc/fstab.c/knellis << EOF
  Q: /qnx stone_age_old_samba binary,ihash 0 0
  EOF
  $ mount -a

That should help.  I'm not really keen to add more hardcoded support
for such old filesystems.
