I tried this but it didn't work.
I made the necessary change and added an additional (non-space) case as a test.
The services were restarted.
The mount was performed and was successful.
The test case controls were active and verified that the modified 
exports file was in use.
The cases with the escaped \040 embedded spaces were not active, as 
even though I had
specified the noaccess option the directories were descended by the 
find command.

         /cygdrive/c/Program\040Files   (noaccess)
