I think I know what the problem is, although I haven't figure out the
right place to fix it yet.

I re-built XEmacs (w/ X support) and it produced a little utility
called runemacs.  If I call runemacs to start XEmacs from a telnet
session w/ inetd running as service, all stdout gets redirected to my
emacs buffer.  If I start XEmacs directly, some stdout goes to a DOS
window.   I checked the runemacs source and found the following

        .......................

  memset (&start, 0, sizeof (start));
  start.cb = sizeof (start);
  start.dwFlags = STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW;
  start.wShowWindow = SW_HIDE;

  sec_attrs.nLength = sizeof (sec_attrs);
  sec_attrs.lpSecurityDescriptor = NULL;
  sec_attrs.bInheritHandle = FALSE;

  if (CreateProcess (NULL, new_cmdline, &sec_attrs, NULL, TRUE, 0,
		     NULL, NULL, &start, &child))
        ................

Apparently, the wShowWindow flags was set in a CYGWIN window, but not
from inetd started as a service.
