I installed cygwin 1.5 using the setup-legacy.exe and all the binaries get

How do I change the binaries install location from C:\Cygwin\usr\bin to
C:\Cygwin\bin

As 1.5 is legacy, it is no longer supported by this list. So you're really on your own if you still with this version.

C:\cygwin\usr\bin should not exist.  /usr/bin is supposed to be a mount
to C:/cygwin/bin.  You can check that.
