Consider this as a 'patch' to the docs...

--------------------

Configuring Cygwin/Xfree

Currently most Cygwin/XFree options are configured via startxwin.bat
stored in /usr/X11R6/bin. Following all of the above instructions has
always left me with a functioning installation of Cygwin/XFree on
Windows 2000; your mileage may vary.

--------------------

The steps above doesn't mention to download the contrib, so maybe a
small note like 

"don't worry if you get a bunch of tvtwm not found, throw an eye or
two at startxwin.bat, and modify tvtwm.exe to tvm.exe, check the paths
so they look healthy"
