inetd and it's subprocesses are started with:

	CYGWIN=binmode tty ntea ntsec

bash or tcsh from cmd window are started with:

	CYGWIN=binmode notty ntea ntsec

or for testing purposes with:

	CYGWIN=binmode notty ntea nontsec

The answer is definitely 'no'. In my environments on every computer cygwin1.dll
is in /usr/bin directory. If I test new dlls, I rename the old one to e.g
cygwin1.dllX and copy the new one again to /usr/bin. With this method, I don't
have evil surprises. Moreover I have explicitly checked it by running `find'.

I know, it's not the answer, you like to get :-(

Should we (Larry and me) try it without the aforementioned detection code?
If so, how can I disable it?

Regards,
Corinna
