Chris,
You may get a better answer from the <cygwin-xfree at cygwin dot com>
list, which is intended for discussing all things X-related (on Cygwin).
I've redirected this message there, and reset the Reply-To: for your
convenience. Please remove <cygwin at cygwin dot com> from follow-up
messages.
Igor
