Most importantly, this won't fix the bug in future releases. A proper patch will do much more good in the long term, compared to a one-time hack. Additionally, you are violating the GPL because you offer binaries with no source code. It is not sufficient to say you can get the source code from any Cygwin mirror, you have to offer it on the same place as the binaries. Even if you were offering unmodified binaries you would still be obligated to host a copy of the source code. As a thought experiment as to why this is so, consider if in 5 years time someone stumbles onto your site, downloads your binaries, and then wants the source. But suppose that the source for this version is no longer available on the Cygwin mirrors, or perhaps the Cygwin project has disbanded entirely. You are now unable to fulfill this request which is a direct violation of the license. This is why the GPL states that you cannot rely on third parties to make the source available. It is a technicality, but it is also a very common mistake.

Problem with -multiwindow and -clipboard when using -nolisten tcp
I'm trying to turn off the tcp port for Cygwin/X. I would like to just close it down on the outside interface and still have it listen on the loopback device. I have not been able to find a way to do that. The closest thing I could find is to turn off tcp all together. This does work. I'm able to bring up xterms and the whole deal. I get odd behavior after that. The xterm allows me to copy and paste within the window, but it doesn't copy to the Microsoft Windows clipboard. The x button on the upper right corner of the xterm also does not work. You can only open one xterm or other type of xforwarding because multiwindow hasn't loaded. Is there a setting to tell multiwindow and clipboard where the display is? I can see them trying to access the loopback.
