And is it supposed to be in there with a proper installation? I see
that the msys/mingw faq states
  There is no need to add MSYS's "/bin" to your system PATH
so I guess the answer is "no".

Anyway, for a simple installation (like Ruurd's), and the binaries
will be alongside lyx.exe, so this spaecial PATH element should
alsways be added (not a a lyxrc variable).
