Re: Unrecognized option: -nolock

With the latest release 1.7.0-67 Cygwin [1.7] now works glitch-free on
FAT32 filesystems; but to run X on FAT32 we still have to revert to
1.7.0-60. The recommended fix (there may be more than one but this seems
potentially the easiest and most effective) is to run X -nolock. But
this option is unrecognised in the current XWin. Please could -nolock be
reintroduced so that FAT32 users can take full advantage of the current
.dll?
Thank you.

Thanks for reporting this bug.


This is an upstream change in 1.7.0 and later, and looks like it's been disabled by accident during some code clean-up.

Patch to follow.
