Stuart,
A default setup should have given you the following mounts:
Device Directory Type Flags
C:\cygwin\bin /usr/bin user binmode
C:\cygwin\lib /usr/lib user binmode
C:\cygwin / user binmode
Then, as far as any Cygwin app can tell, /usr/lib has the same
contents as /lib, because they both point to C:\cygwin\lib. In
Explorer, C:\cygwin\usr\lib would look empty, but that directory is
just a place-holder for the mount point. Any cygwin application
(including man) should follow the /usr/lib mount-point and would find
(in this case) C:\cygwin\lib\man.conf as /usr/lib/man.conf or
/lib/man.conf, whichever it was looking for.
I don't know what might have gone wrong in your case. It may be too
late to figure it out, now that you've unmounted /usr/bin and
/usr/lib, and re-run setup. Anyway, I've cc'd these details to the
Cygwin developers, in case they can make use of it. Feel free to
follow up with me, as you will not be able to post to
cygwin-apps AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com yourself.
Thanks for providing these details.
