I can only find a total of three references to either directory,
and two of them mention it the context of "this was the old location":

faq-resources.xml-15-list what man pages the package includes.)  Some older packages still keep
faq-resources.xml:16:their documentation in <literal>/usr/doc/</literal>
faq-resources.xml-17-instead of <literal>/usr/share/doc/</literal>.

setup-net.sgml:235:Relevant documentation can be found in the <literal>/usr/doc/Cygwin/</literal> 
setup-net.sgml-236-or <literal>/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/</literal> directory.

The only remaining one is a glancing reference in the FAQ to rxvt,
and it needs cleaning up anyway as it refers to ash.  If the attached
fix is OK I will update the htdocs copy too.

faq-using.xml-864-<para>Don't invoke as simply ``rxvt'' because that will run /bin/sh (really
faq-using.xml-865-ash) which is not a good interactive shell.  For details see
faq-using.xml:866:<literal>/usr/doc/Cygwin/rxvt-&lt;ver&gt;.README</literal>.

Unless my grep-fu failed that's it.

	* faq-using.xml (faq.using.console-window): Mention FHS location of
	docs and remove outdated reference to ash.
