Let me ask this more properly.  I know how to use -nounixkill and
-nowinkill to prevent keyboard initiated kills of the server.

I use a VirtuaWin on a WinXP system to provide multiple desktops.
One of them is activated via Ctrl-Alt-F4.  When I do this,
it kills the running instance of Cygwin/X which apparently sees
this key combo as a "kill server" command.  This is true whether
or not -nounixkill and/or -nowinkill are in use.

Ideas?
