Reinstalling cygwin with UNIX line ending solved the problem - thanks Phil.
PS: /user/... instead of /usr/... was just mistype in my mail.

I have reinstalled xorg-x11-fnts (and everything in X11).
There are many fonts in directories
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts\75dpi and 100dpi.
But "Start X server" still crashes with the same fatal error.
Directory /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, which is mention in Xwin.log,
does not exist.
