Will cygwin1.dll be supported to execute in UDF format in the future?
As I wrote earlier, it doesn't matter that the file system
is UDF. cygwin1.dll 3.2.0 and later seems to cause problems
if it is placed in the root directory.

Even with UDF format, the problem does not occur if hello.exe
and cygwin1.dll are placed in any directory other than root
directory.

Perhaps the Cygwin DLL is trying to identify the Cygwin root directory
as one higher than its own location so that it can locate /etc/fstab
etc. If it's in the root of a drive maybe it's getting confused. Create
an x:\bin\ directory (where x is the drive letter of the UDF device)
into which to place cygwin1.dll and the executable.
