Thanx, I found that just before, and just after the setruid function calls
there were a bunch of if !defines for a bunch of other os' - so I just added
Cygwin..

I can't imagine that it would matter in a cygwin application. We don't
even have the concept of real and effective UIDs.
So maybe you need a '-Dsetruid(x)=0' somewhere?

I did not patch XF86Config.c yet, because to use XF86Config, first you need
XF86 servers functional. XF86Config access vieo memory and io ports
directly,
unless there are drivers, it would be of not much at the moment.
