Microsoft's latest high priority update for .NET 3.5 SP1 for XP has broken the -clipboard option to XWin.
I have seen the following behavior on 2 PCs so far using cygwin 1.5:
   before the MS update all works fine
   after the update, any paste function in vim, or xterm, or wherever causes an immediate crash
   removing the -clipboard option to the XWin and everything works fine again (except of coarse copying between X and 
windows)
