Since I updated to the new X.org 7.4 I have xwin crashes. I am using
cygiwn version 1.5.25-cr-0x5f1.
This is how it happens:
- suddenly, all network connexions (cygwin and windows) stop working
(no internet...). rxvt freezes
- when I kill xwin (kill -9 from the cygwin bash shell), all works again.
- often, at the same time, windows clipboard does not work any more.
- this happens 1-2 times a week roughly.

I am using the \cygwin\bin\startxwin.bat file to start Xwin which
contents is given below.
