I tried to replicate but I didn't see the same problems. I'm using lftp
fish://mark AT localhost though since I don't have acces to another machine
running cygwin.

sshd is running through cygrunsrv. I'm not using inetd.

My "althor" box is at home and I won't be able to mess with the setup
there until Monday to do further testing. Sorry.
Maybe you could try "fishing" at localhost on your cygwin box (i.e. lftp
fish://you AT localhost)
