I'm seeing the same thing on Win7/64 Pro, both for 64bit and 32bit
Cygwin.  Since I don't normally use the X11 Emacs, unfortunately I don't
know which update was introducing this, it used to worked OK a few weeks
ago.

And do you also use Windows Defender?

If this isn't BLODA, I'm completely stumped.

Would running under strace help?

It might. Achim or Mike (or anyone who can reproduce this problem), could you run "strace -o strace.out emacs-X11 -Q" and post strace.out somewhere?
