Searching the list archives may unearth the relevant thread. However, the
bug may have crept back, or may not have been propagated to the latest
Cygwin/X release.
I suspect that some bugfixes which were present in the CYGWIN branch on
freedesktop are missing in the branch which was the source for the
latest release.
Most likely fonts.dir is not written in binmode. Patching mkfontscale
might help or forcing mkfontscale to work in binmode when started from
font-update.
I see that the fix on the CYGWIN branch is to do this. So I'll make the
change in the X.org repos.
