xterm: Error 14, errno 2: No such file or directory problem with the current binaries at cygwin

[Robert Collins]

This is a special feature of cygwin's strace. It is a generic bug fixer. Seriously, try running a buggy program under strace. 9/10
times, it'll work :-]

If you'd like to see why the error occurs, look for the file opens that occur early on in the strace, maybe you can pinpoint it so
we can fix it without strace.
