Does it just crash XWin.exe, or does it give the STATUS ACCESS VIOLATION 
dialog box that indicates that the crash occurred in cygwin1.dll?  If it 
is the former, then that is because of a bug in XWin.exe (which I have 
heard reports of for Netscape before), if it is the later (Andrew's 
case) then it is probably because of multiple copies of cygwin1.dll on 
your system.

Right, I think you have a different problem.
