1. Will Xorg even work on Cygwin/MinGW?

Well, it *seems* I got Xorg (1.12 branch) with xf86-video-dummy (0.3.5) working, but while xf86-video-nested (git master) will start, clients are unable to connect. I used Alan's conf files and added my own in xorg.conf.d:

Section "Module"
        Load "fb"
        Load "shadow"
        Disable "kbd"
        Disable "mouse"
EndSection

This is due to video-dummy requiring libfb, video-nested requiring both libfb and libshadow, and libshadow itself requiring libfb.

Even if it does, I see already it would take some serious patching to
build due to the module-based architecture, which I would be willing to
work on.

The attached draft patch is how I built Xorg 1.12 on Cygwin.  Comments?
