They are not actually *required* to run inetd, right?  Does it really
make sense to add them as require packages then?

Can you check if icmp6.h from FreeBSD
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/netinet/icmp6.h?revision=279531&view=co
does the trick when copied to /usr/include/netinet?  If so, I add this file
to the repo.

MAX_IPOPTLEN is in ip.h since Cygwin 2.3.0.
