-Q allows you to query the Cfagent-parsed configuration for
variables. So:

# cfagent -Q sysadm,schedule
sysadm=20:ads@womble.dur.ac.uk
schedule=8[Min00_05]
schedule=8[Min15_20]
schedule=8[Min30_35]
schedule=8[Min45_50]

This way, Cfagent doesn't need to know what Cfexecd considers to be
special variables.

This wasn't actually the point of my message to you though, Mark.
Because we broke the -Q code, one of the programs got into an
infinite loop. The SIGPIPE handler wasn't masking out SIGPIPE calls,
so the process was never exiting.

The two URLs I posted describe it in more detail.
