Subject: directory structure

In recent threads almost everybody seems to enthusiastically agree
that the directory cygwin-b20/H-i[3456]86-cygwin32 is in analogy with
/usr under Unix and that linking or mounting it accordingly will
enhance the Unix look & feel.  This was slightly surprising to me
because I have from the start had a link /usr -> /cygwin-b20.

I remember that my main reason was the existence of
/cygwin-b20/include with the readline and g++ directories underneath.
How could these be picked up with the more popular scheme, other than
explicitly telling gcc about them?
