How is the date horrible? It is 0 seconds since the epoch, for lack of a

/cygdrive is not a real directory. That "horrible" metadata you're

the system when you ask for it.
If I have well understood '/proc' is a virtual directory like
'/cygdrive', but for it
$ ls -lrt /
dr-xr-xr-x 1 Administrator Administrators 0 Dec 1 2006 proc
^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^
So, why not similar things for cygdrive? This was only my curiosity.
Regarding the 'horrible', that date (01.01.1970) remembered me some
negative experiences on old DOS.
Cheers,
