I don't know if this applies in your situation, but if xinetd is
stripping SYSTEMROOT from the child process' environment, then all
socket functions in that process will fail.  I think recent versions of
the cygwin1.dll have measures to prevent this from happening, but just
for grins try adding SYSTEMROOT to the above and see if it makes any
difference.
