A normal cygwin installation keeps its .exe's and .dll's (/usr/bin) off the System and User Environment paths.  That comes in handy
at times; e.g. when you have both MKS and cygwin installed together.  You are welcome to change that, but it doesn't happen unless
you do it yourself.  When you open a text window using the cygwin.bat icon, the cygwin paths are set up in that window.

The crtxx.o files (both the cygwin and the mingw versions) should appear in /usr/lib.
