Not necessarily, it could be "mounted" anywhere. See the instructions
in http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started, under "After Installing
You Should ...". nt/INSTALL points to those instructions.

On my system, MSYS and MinGW are installed in sibling directories, and
/mingw/bin is not mapped to anything. It's okay either way, provided
that you configure the rest correctly.

One way is to set up PATH in your ~/.bash_profile file.
