looking at the startup log, I don't see the X-Security extension being
initialized. Is it not supported?

Also, perhaps more important for me is the message:

2009-12-15 10:39:27 XFree86-Bigfont extension local-client optimization

due to lack of shared memory support in the kernel

NT supports shared memory objects and I thought cygwin uses shared
memory for cross-process communication. So what's this about X not
knowing about the shared memory support?

You need to install and run the cygserver service before launching XWin in order to have support for XFree86-Bigfont and MIT-SHM.
