I did this wrong.  I had to re-install the service, not just adding a
startup parameter.  With "-e "PATH=/usr/bin" the resulting initial PATH from
an ssh login is "PATH=/usr/bin:/bin".  So I can use that as a workaround and
we can spend some more time to think about whether that behaviour from
cygrunsrv or sshd needs further adjustment or if just the install helper
script should ask for these things.

Thanks for getting me on the right track.

Regards,
Achim.
