I upgraded 3.3.3 → 3.3.4 in a lab environment, where my home directory 
is H:\ or /cygdrive/h
Starting cygwin (cmd/bash or mintty) with some tools from gnuutils (like 
ls) in the path gives me this message:
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/cygdrive/h’: File exists
/cygdrive/h could not be created.
Setting HOME to /tmp.
After clearing PATH, then running bash or mintty:
bash: /cygdrive/h/.bashrc: Too many levels of symbolic links
$ cd /cygdrive/h
-bash: cd: /cygdrive/h: Too many levels of symbolic links
$ /bin/ls -l /cygdrive
/bin/ls: /cygdrive/h: Too many levels of symbolic links
/bin/ls: /cygdrive/l: Too many levels of symbolic links
total 48

Reverting to cygwin 3.3.3 solves the issue. Maybe related to the other 
3.3.4 problem reported today?
Kind regards,
Thomas
