This is a Cygwin1.dll issue at Windows98.  It is unable to fork.
Which version of cygwin1.dll are you using?  I think fork bug in
cygwin1.dll was fixed a long time ago.  You might check with Cygwin
mailing list on this.  I cannot help you with cygwin1.dll bugs.

Keep #define HasShm NO.  MIT SHM in XF86 4.0 was very buggy.  XF 4.0.1
was released over the weekend.  I am working on patching it for Cygwin.
XF86 4.0.1 will have SHM, GLX and few other extensions bug fixed.
