Okay I downloaded

o xwinclip-20020622-0007.tar.bz2 - http://www.msu.edu/~huntharo/xwin/xwinclip/xwinclip-20020622-0007.tar.bz2
and
o xwinclip_chris_twiner - http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2002-09/msg00042/xwinclip_chris_twiner.zip

I then copied over your stuff to the xwinclip-20020622-0007 release and did a 

xmkmf
make
./build_dll.SH

The last step gave me:

Build the Dll

linking hook dll DllMain as entry point
Creating library file: libxwinclip_hook.import.a
xwinclip_hook.o(.eh_frame+0x11):xwinclip_hook.cpp: undefined reference to `__gxx_personality_v0'

So I added to the link line in the build_dll.SH script: -L/lib/mingw -lstdc++

---
#!/bin/bash

echo 
echo Build the Dll
echo 

gcc -c xwinclip_hook.cpp -o xwinclip_hook.o
echo linking hook dll DllMain as entry point
gcc -Wl,--out-implib,libxwinclip_hook.import.a -shared -e _DllMain@12 -mno-cygwin -o xwinclip_hook.dll xwinclip_hook.o -L/lib/mingw -lstdc++

Now I had xwinclip.exe and xwinclip_hook.dll. I tried with both rootless and nonrooless mode
but in both cases when starting up xwinclip I get:

UnicodeSupport - Windows NT/2000/XP

See above
