STARTXWIN.BAT Hanging Under Win2KPro

I have not seen a hang per se, but some times I run STARTXWIN.BAT and
nothing happens, I never get the X server or the xterm, sometimes I
get the X server but no xterm.  If I run the script again, I usually
get an xterm.  No errors, no hangs.

Since I'm able to recover by simply rerunning the script, I've not
attempted to track it down.

I've seen this behavior on both Win2KPro and WinXP Pro.
