I'm wondering if the problems that Mo is seeing with mingw are due to
the fact that I changed the way /usr/bin and /usr/lib are mounted.  We
had agreed that /usr/bin would be an alias for /bin but it was
implemented the other way around.  I changed this so that it was what we
agreed.

Maybe something in the relative path lookup is screwed up due to this.

Anyway, I don't think this is a show stopper but we should keep an
eye on it.
