You didn't answer this with your below answer.  The cygserver-config
requires administrator privilege so it would be better placed with
cygserver.exe in sbin, IMO.

But cyglsa{,64}.dll is a standalone without any other binary.  It is
only accessed by the OS for the LSA support if the registry key exists.
This means the cyglsa-config can be modified to point to the sbin
directory instead of the bin directory.  Again administrator privilege
is required so better placed in sbin, IMO.
