[Fwd: Re: Xterm hangs with latest Cygwin (-62?)]

Likewise. With everything up to date (cygwin, luit, xorg-server, ... --
see attached cygwin.srv) the command
   ~> run XWin -nolisten local -multiwindow &
fails with an instruction to view /var/log/XWin.0.log (attached) which 
closes with
   Fatal server error:
   Can't read lock file /tmp/.X0-lock
If I simply revert to the cygwin1.dll from -61, leaving all else
unchanged, the command works just fine and xterm can be started with
   ~> /bin/xterm -display localhost:0.0
