Xwin needs rgb

To cygwin-free,

I downloaded the cygwin-xfree binary for B20 and 
installed it.   When I run the Xwin command to start
server it cannot find the rgb database under /usr/lib/X11

So, I downloaded the xc-1.tar.bz2, built the rgb.exe 
from the source, went to the lib/X11 directory and used
the command 'rgb rgb < rgb.txt' to create the database.

The Xwin server will still not start.  I have the link
/usr/lib/X11 to the /usr/X11R6.4/lib/X11 directory.

Is there something else I can do to make it work?
