Those are not valid filenames under cygwin.  You can use /cygdrive/c
(or /c if you mount c:/ there), but c:/ is not a posix-compatible
filename.  It may have worked in the past, but it was by accident, not
by design.  If you want more details, you can search the archives of
the cygwin mailing list.

HTH,
