No, I do not.  We were talking about the registry.

I haven't actually tried this with inetd.exe.  I've just verified that
setting a key for bash.exe has the desired effect.  I also tried the
"default" option (which is basically equivalent to setting the CYGWIN
environment variable everywhere) that works fine, too.

Maybe you are suffering from the fact that you are not including an
"export" in the inetd list.  You will need that if you want the values
to propagate.  Either that or you should just use "default" rather than
"c:\\cygwin\\usr\\sbin\\inetd.exe".
