There are always exceptions.  A bunch of projects I am a developer on uses
the MS Visual C++ compiler when building on Cygwin platforms.  Would you be
surprised to know that VC++ does *not* search Cygwins /usr/include for
headers by default? :)  Of course, I agree we should avoid including
-[IL]/usr/{lib,include} flags in *-config output for platforms were that
path is searched by default...
