I can not repoduce this. I have no entries in /etc/hosts and added a few for testing. In my case getent hosts/ahosts always returns 0 if an entry in /etc/hosts is chosen. There's also no good reason that this would change. Getent hasn't been updated for quite some time and there's no change in that area in Cygwin.
