question about cygwin package

That's all due to the magic of mount points - in cygwin, /bin and /usr/bin
are two spellings for the same directory from cygwin's point of view
(unless you manually change /etc/fstab to state otherwise, which is not
recommended).  The files are visible in both locations.
