Strange that I can't list it with "ls", but I can list it with "ls -ld".You're running 32 bit Cygwin on 64 bit Windows.

Thank you so much, that did the trick perfectly. Now the directory has a normal listing with the 64-bit Cygwin. That Windows magic was surely arcane and spooky. Also it's nice to see "TrustedInstaller" in my /etc/passwd and /etc/group instead of question marks for unknown now.
