Hi, just joined the list. I updated to the latest cygwin today and was having the same problem with X just freezing up in the background. Your fix did the trick. I am profoundly grateful, it was making me batty.
Since I've never overwritten an installed binary with cygwin before, wondering whether I will run into any problems later when I need to update. I presume the binary from the patched code won't make it to the mirrors for a while?
