mount -X is a bit of a workaround. While it speeds up starting apps from that directory, it disallows correct argument passing for non-Cygwin applications in the same directory. Therefore the two additional mount -x for strace and cygcheck, bot mingw apps. I don't think that's a good idea to default /bin to -X.
