There's no reason at all to mount anything there. If your installation doesn't have /usr/share, your installation is clearly broken and given that you didn't use setup to install it, it's really just a case of PEBCAK.I wasn't asking for help; I have a working install. I was stating the possibility of making Cygwin better. Too bad that one cannot simply extract the archives and must depend on the blind use of setup.exe.
