After upgrading to Cygwin X 1.7.3, I noticed that startxwin.bat has been
replaced with startxwin.exe. I also noticed that the xterm launched by
startxwin.exe ignores my .Xdefaults file. Subsequent launches of xterm
use .Xdefaults as expected. How can I fix this? I want it to use the
same colors, geometry, etc. that is specified in the .Xdefaults file.
TIA

Nevermind. Found the answer on my own. In addition to the new
startxwin.exe, there's a man page for it which explains it all.
