Yes. That's not the only mount, though, is it? ;-)

No, this is fine.

No. You'll need to add this when you install the service, i.e., when you
give cygrunsrv the -I option initially.

Because the service tries to start /usr/sbin/portmap, and, since it runs
as SYSTEM, it doesn't know where /usr/sbin/ *is* (because there are no
mounts for that user).
Your choices are
1) change your mounts to global mounts, by running something like
eval "`mount -m | sed -e 's/ -u / -s /g' -e 's/$/;/'`"
or 2) add mounts for the SYSTEM user.
Choice #1 is usually preferable.
