Actually, I did try the start xhost + comand on a separate line (the REM
...  &&  xhost + was left over from an earlier, mistaken attempt). In fact,
I have tried the command before, and then after, the start XWin ...
command, but it fails in the same way. Another interesting thing, if I
enter the command at a command prompt, the following happens:

C:\>xhost +
xhost:  unable to open display "192.168.152.99:0.0"

This happens also when DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0, and also within a cygwin bash
window, for either display address. The xhost: reponse occurs about 10
seconds after the command is entered.
