Thanks: those (and fiddling)

Perhaps to avoid this, xterm's setup.hint should list font-alias as a
requirement since it names fonts defined there in it's default resources?
font-adobe-dpi100 (and -dpi75?) should probably be xterm's or
xorg-server's dependencies as well, otherwise you get a warning

After upgrading from X 6.8.99.901-1 to 7.4-1, I had font problems,
but could launch an xterm from the new cygwin. After attempting to
fix that by installing fonts, I cannot launch an xterm
