Hey All,

I'm getting ready to roll out a new MinGW runtime, as part of the new
release dirname and basename functions have been added.  As part of
the package, man pages for both functions install to /usr/man/man3.
My question is, is this a good thing?  Until this point it seems the
the runtime has lived in it's own isolated world within Cygwin, but
these man pages have crept in to the Cygwin world.

Is there a better place in which these man pages should be installed
from withing Cygwin?

Cheers!

Chris
