The mount manpage says:
     -p, --show-cygdrive-prefix
            show user and/or system cygdrive path prefix

The and/or would suggest you could have different user and system cygdrive
path prefixes active at once, which would potentially be a bit confusing....

Also, is there a better way to extract the prefix directly than to do some
bash grepping/cutting on the readable text output of mount -p?
I need to know the cygdrive prefix to make my scripts that call Windoze
executables work independent of what it might be set to.
