I also have a problem with my start icon that doesn't seem to pick up my
custom parameters. The command is:
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c /usr/bin/startxwin.exe
-xkblayout ca -xkbvariant fr -emulate3buttons

The layout is always US and the 3 button emulation doesn't work either.

You need to quote the part after -c, and you're also missing a '--' (see the startxwin documentation). Try


C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c '/usr/bin/startxwin.exe -- -xkblayout ca -xkbvariant fr -emulate3buttons'
