- Subject: Cygwin setup and mounts
What are the reasons for setup program to create these mounts
unconditionally (file install.cc, function do_install_thread)?
create_mount ("/usr/bin", cygpath ("/bin"), istext, issystem);
create_mount ("/usr/lib", cygpath ("/lib"), istext, issystem);
The resulting cygwin installation has a mix of /usr/bin and /bin files
in /bin (the same for /lib) and empty /usr/bin and /usr/lib directories.
