Still problems starting X

On X11R6.99, I start X with a link on desktop, 'XWin Server', whose
target is:
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe bash -l start_XWin.sh
and in /usr/local/bin, start_XWin.sh is
----------------------------
#! /bin/bash
export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
export PATH=/usr/bin:"$PATH"
# Cleanup from last run.
rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix
# We have added +bs, i.e. BackingStore
XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error +bs &
# Return from sh.
exit
----------------------------
It is just /usr/bin/startxwin.sh stripped from superfluous comments,
from the start of xterm and with +bs for XWin.
It starts only the X server.
With X11R6.99 this works just fine, but with the new X11R7.4 (also -3)
there are two annoying dos windows (which appear for less than an
instant), in the second of which (after many tries) I have seen that
there is this written:
----
The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
> Warning: Type "ONE_LEVEL" has 1 levels, but <RALT> has 2 symbols
> Ignoring extra symbols
Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server
----
If, from the link target I remove 'run', i.e. if I start with:
C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -l start_XWin.sh
the same happens, as if, in the first case, 'run' [1] does not work
correctly.
Cheers,
Angelo.

[1] Should 'run' avoids/hides dos windows?
