Cannot launch ssh from X11 system tray icon


I have two machines, a desktop and a laptop.
Both are 64bit Windows 7 Enterprise installations.

I (think I) configured Cygwin on both the same and they have the same
identical ~/.XWinrc file.
They both use the same mirror for installing and are both fully up to date.

A?précis?of my .XWinrc looks like this:

menu root {
// Comments fit here, too...
"Xterm" exec "xterm"
"Xterm - Vulpix" exec "ssh vulpix xterm -e bash --login"
}

And on the desktop both work and on the laptop only the local xterm will run.
Nothing appers in /var/log/<anything>

So I added an entry like this:

"Experiment" exec ~/experiment

and ~/experiment looks like this

#!/bin/bash
(
set -x
ssh -v vulpix xterm
) > /tmp/experiment 2>&1

It still fails (i.e. does nothing) and /tmp/experiment has

+ ssh -v vulpix xterm

So can anyone tell me why I get the select / waitForMultipleObjects error?

If I'm in the xterm I *can* run, I have zero problems running

$?ssh vulpix xterm -e bash --login
