Commit d47d052 switches Cygwin's behavior of making /usr/bin an alias of /bin, to making /bin an alias of /usr/bin. As part of that, it dropped the /usr/lib alias of /lib. Later, 1650471 changed the default path to the shell to be under /usr/bin.
After the breakage building ksh93, I have a couple of questions
- Should we have a bind mount of /lib to /usr/lib, so that for instance gcc can find its files if invoked from bin?
- Should we consider changing the
_CS_PATH
confstr constant to/usr/bin:/bin
? I think this would have made ksh93 happy, but Linux also seems to return/bin:/usr/bin
for this, so perhaps it could have unintended consequences?msys2-runtime/winsup/cygwin/sysconf.cc
