I believe cygwin-mount does it thing via expand-file-name, so I'm
guessing some call to expand-file-name is missing somehere in magit.

I have no idea what that means (I don't use Cygwin and cygwin-mount),
but in general, you have no chance of supporting Cygwin applications
from a native Windows Emacs without using cygwin-mount, which probably
includes activating it.
