Well, as a last attempt at trying to figure out why startx/ssh was
blue-screening my XP box, I tried something that was mentioned on this list,
for different reasons:  I uninstalled Zone Alarm Pro 5.  Bingo.  No blue
screen.  Everything works fine.  Have not installed Zone Alarm v4.x yet, to
see if it is specific to version 5, but I can say that I have successfully
used cygwin while running ZAP 4.x.

So, something's up with version 5.x of Zonealarm...  Just thought I'd post
these findings, in case others might be having similar problems.
