If I let the mouse pointer hover over it, the tool tip says:

The icon in the system tray is supposed to react to two inputs:
- a double-click with the left mouse button should trigger the "Exit" dialog
- a right-click should pop up a menu that is trivially simple until
customized with an xwinrc file.
Does yours react to neither?

The X icon in the system tray does not respond to any mouse clicks.
Currently this was started from within the bash shell as requested by Reid.
I also wonder if the 'xterm' should open an xterm window in Windows? It
doesn't.
FWIW, my windows PATH is 897 bytes when %xxx% symbolics are resolved. So
when the .bat scripts append to the front it may be getting to whatever
limit Windows has these days, or a possible limit that Cygwin can handle.
