After updating my 1.7 installation to the latest cygwin DLL, my xterms
were finally able to exec bash (with some issues from bash as well),
but I immediately ran into segfault when copying to the clipboard from
nedit.  I.e. as soon as I highlighted a line of text and hit CTRL-C,
it dumped core.

Actually, this appears to be a known problem with lesstif (the Motif implementation which nedit and other programs use). It looks like other distros may have a fix, but it will take me a little while until I can focus on this.
