subsubsection "Error message: "Unable to retrieve the list of cygwin mirrors...""
subsubsection "System hangs when unpacking tar archives"
* path.cc: Ditto.

loop for deleting cygpath entries is done only when such entries exist.
(mount_info::from_registry): Eliminate sorting.
(mount_info::add_item): Call add_reg_mount if necessary. Check nmounts
more precisely. Use strcasematch in looking up existing entries.
