I just posted Test 42 to the server development page:
http://xfree86.cygwin.com/devel/shadow/

Server Test Series binary and source code releases are now
available via the sources.redhat.com ftp mirror network 
( http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html ) in the 
pub/cygwin/xfree/devel/shadow/ directory.  You may wish to note the
desired filename in the links below, then download from your 
closest mirror ( http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html ).

Server binary, direct link:

Server source, direct link:

Changes:

1) Add support to handle Ctrl+Alt+Backspace as shutdown signal.
(Alexander Gottwald)

2) Add command line options to enable/disable each of the two
key combos that cause the server to shutdown.
(Alexander Gottwald)

3) Disable the -ansi build flag.  Causes the 'hypot' function to be
correctly prototyped, fixing some crashes.  (Brian Genisio, Alan
Hourihane)

4) Fix a namespace conflict in xc/lib/font/Type1/regions.c by
renaming 'infinity' to '_infinity'.  (Alan Hourihane)


Usage:

1) -[no]winkill enables/disables the Alt+F4 server shutdown key
combo.

2) -[no]unixkill enables/disables the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace server
shutdown key combo.

3) Default behavior:
Alt+F4: enabled
Ctrl+Alt+Backspace: disabled


Enjoy,

Harold
