See: http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_toc.html#TOC45 and http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/highlights.html#OV-HI-PERM In that case, this is not Xfree86 related, so next time please use the main cygwin@cygwin.com mailing list. Also, see: http://www.cygwin.com/problems.html for how to report this issue correctly so that someone can answer without guessing.
