/bin and /usr/bin are the same (via mount) in Cygwin.  If they appear 
different, then you're looking at them with non-Cygwin tools.  And the 
README for emacs-23.2-1 does talk about make-emacs-shortcut.  Under 
"Usage notes" it says:

  2. The script /usr/bin/make-emacs-shortcut can be used to create a
     shortcut for starting emacs.  As shipped, this shortcut starts
     emacs under X if an X server is running and in a mintty window
     otherwise.  Edit it as desired.

And a little further down it says:

In addition, you will need cygutils in order to run the
make-emacs-shortcut script described above, and you will need mintty
and run2 to use the shortcut it creates.
