xfs (font server) crashes under cygwin. Anyone got it to work?

[Greg Lane]

G'day Everyone,

At the first font request to xfs running under cygwin, it core dumps. 

Has anyone ever got it to work?

I have searched the archives and seen that a number of people have
posted the same issue without a resolution (at least I couldn't find one
and I couldn't find anyone who would say that they had it running.)

I am currently running cygwin under windows XP Pro.

The "rules" say to post here, although would there be any point asking 
on the main cygwin list to get a broader coverage and try and find 
someone who has it running? 

Thanks,
Greg
