I just posted Test 50 to the server development page:
http://xfree86.cygwin.com/devel/shadow/

Server Test Series binary and source code releases are now
available via the sources.redhat.com ftp mirror network 
(http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html) in the 
pub/cygwin/xfree/devel/shadow/ directory.  You may wish to note the
desired filename in the links below, then download from your 
closest mirror (http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html).

Changes:

1) General - The NativeGDI engine can now create the familiar X
background pattern that is used to fill the initial X Server screen.
However, an all white pattern, instead of the correct pattern, is
being used to fill the server screen.  I can't find the mistake in
winfillsp.c, wingetsp.c, or winsetsp.c, so I'm making this release to
see if anyone can find the mistake.

2) winwndproc.c/winWindowProc () - Replace #if
!WIN_NATIVE_GDI_SUPPORT checks with checks for pScreenInfo->dwEngine
== WIN_SERVER_NATIVE_GDI.  Certain sections of winWindowProc (), such
as mouse input, cannot yet be processed by the NativeGDI engine.
Prohibiting user input causes the server startup process to be the
same every time, which makes debugging possible.

3) win.h/WIN_NATIVE_GDI_SUPPORT - Set to YES, again.  This works now
because we are no longer omitting sections of winwndproc.c (see
above).

4) win.h/DEBUG_MSG () - Make the macro accept a format string and a
variable list of data parameters in a similar manner to printf ().
DEBUG_MSG () sends a text message to the Win32 API's MessageBox ()
function.

5) winpixmap.c/winCreatePixmap () - Call
winnativegdi.c/winCreateDIBNativeGDI () for device independent bitmap
(DIB) creation.

6) winnativegdi.c/winCreateDIBNativeGDI () - Setup a simple black and
white color table for monochrome DIBs.

7) win.h - Remove duplicate #include of stdio.h

8) win.h - Move debugging message macros to after stdio.h in
included.

9) win.h/winPrivPixmapRec - Change the pixmap bits pointer from void
* to BYTE *.

10) winfillsp.c, wingetsp.c, winsetsp.c, wingc.c - Don't select the
drawable bitmap in wingc.c, rather, select and deselect the drawable
bitmap in the function that operates upon it.  A given bitmap can only
be selected into one device context (hdc) at a time; selecting bitmaps
in wingc.c/winValidateGC () could cause a bitmap to be selected into
more than one hdc at a time which would cause graphics operations to
fail.

11) winfillsp.c, winsetsp.c - Check for a failure from SelectObject ()
when selecting bitmaps into a device context; this is a sanity check
to make sure that a bitmap was deselected after a previous
operation.

12) winwndproc./winWindowProc (), winshaddd.c/winCloseScreenShadowDD
(), winshadddnl.c/winCloseScreenShadowDDNL (),
winshadgdi.c/winCloseScreenShadowGDI (),
winpfbdd.c/winCloseScreenPrimaryDD () - Remove #if 0'd code for
clipboard chain functionality that was moved to the xwinclip
program (http://xfree86.cygwin.com/devel/xwinclip/).


Enjoy,
