Vista after X compile

[Dick Repasky]

The behavior of X on Vista improved some after rebuilding X as described 
in http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2007-08/msg00021.html.

The problem of interest was that the X would hang if one used the exit 
menu item of the X icon in the system tray.

After rebuilding X and rebasing all to avoid startup problems, the 
behavior of the exit menu in the system tray changed (startxwin.sh used to 
launch X). Instead of hanging, X and it's clients end
unceremoniously. No confirmation dialog is displayed, just

xterm: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) or KillClient on X 
server "127.0.0.1".

And, a bash process is left hanging.
