Thanks, Tomasz. As I confirmed with Andrew, I believe the permissions to the /tmp/.X11-unix got narrowed during the setup of sshd. I emailed Mike Erdely and his ssh-l mailing list about this. The same setup procedure also made the /home unwritable, so cygwin couldn't create new home directories for new users. Funny that no one commented on that when I reported it. I imagine Mike's quite busy right now, as his personal website shows that he is a new father.
