this is not an issue -- run setup and download rxvt
configure a shortcut with rxvt exec'ing a bash shell ( passing whatever
params to rxvt and bash that you wish)
  Target:   C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -fn "lucida console-13-bold" -e
c:\cygwin\bin\bash
use the shortcut to open a bash shell prompt and enter
$ nohup startxwin.sh &

you should then be able to exit the rxvt shell window w/o X dying.
