I have found the problem: it was simply that I didn't realize those scripts
form their own package, X-startup-scripts. This is the third time I install
Cygwin/Xfree and I don't remember having to explicitly set those scripts to be
included. Sorry about the distraction.

Right, I finally managed to get somewhere. Not with fvwm, but at least
with a window manager, openbox. In the end I had to:
- edit startx so that
defaultserverargs=
because otherwise by default it will open in multiwindow mode which will
conflict with any window manager,

Normally recent versions of XWin have reliable cut and paste between X
and Windows. The application I run under X is xemacs. But I recently
noticed that when triple-clicking a line of text in xemacs to select
the whole line and put it in the clipboard, I couldn't paste it into
Windows. The log
I have this problem intermittently.

missing package and reselect it for installation, it being a dependency of the

the first run of setup.exe does, and so the second
