After updating my 1.7 installation to the latest cygwin DLL, my xterms

nedit. I.e. as soon as I highlighted a line of text and hit CTRL-C,
it dumped core.
Actually, this appears to be a known problem with lesstif (the Motif
implementation which nedit and other programs use). It looks like other
distros may have a fix, but it will take me a little while until I can
focus on this.
FWIW, if this is still in the pipeline...
I'm still on cygwin 1.5, but I experienced similar crashes witn nedit.
I don't remember that it crashed when hitting CTRL-C, but it crashes
most of the time if I hit CTRL-V to paste some text (sometimes it
works, though). The workaround is to use middle-mouse click to paste
(and maybe also the edit/paste menu).
