Eric,

You have to send all Cygwin/XFree86 questions to the 
cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com mailing list (you don't have to subscribe, just 
be sure to tell us to cc you in replies).

I found the message you were looking for by searching for "key release 
message" at http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/.  The result I was 
looking for was message 41... which was easy to find because the message 
you referred to above was written in May, while 90% of the messages 
before result 41 were from June. The actual message was from February, 
which made it stick out in the results list quite well.  If you can't do 
that on your own, you need to learn.  It is an essential life skill.
