1. The environment variable name is MSYS_WATCH_FSTAB.

2. Unfortunately, it does not make a plugged-in USB stick visible to a running 
bash; this non-feature is not addressed by this variable.

3. You would want to set the variable to non-zero if you frequently 
edit /etc/fstab while an interactive bash is running. :-P
