Greetings, Corinna Vinschen!

You're confusing /etc/default/ (a directory with default initial values for
runtime/startup configurations of [mainly] daemons), which could and SHOULD be
changed to suit system needs and Cygwin's /etc/defaults with pristine copy of
installation environment, which not supposed to be touched by anything, but
installation scripts.

I don't expect it to be changed at all, since there's nothing needs to be
changed.
These two directories serve completely different purposes.
