The Linux Foundation has taken over development of the FHS[1], and have
added /usr/libexec[2] to the forthcoming 3.0 spec, based in its
widespread use in some Linux distributions and other *NIX systems (*BSD,
Minix, perhaps others).
Should we do the same on Cygwin by changing the default cygconf() flags
in cygport? It will mean some changes to [PKG]_CONTENTS will be
necessary for packages relying on the current --libexecdir=/usr/lib
default (gcc and git come to mind).
