Problems with tcsh on startup of cygwin X

Each time I start up cygwin-X I get these error messages in the Xterm 
window that lingers after the Xterm windows opens.  This is frustrating 
because it just make it that much harder to use cygwin on Windows 7.  
Clogs up the task bar with processes that you can't use.  Anyway, any 
ideas on why tcsh is failing.

      2 [main] tcsh 976 C:\Xwin\bin\tcsh.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't 
allocate heap, Win32 error 487, base 0x7A0000, top 0x87E000, 
reserve_size 905216, allocsize 909312, page_const 4096
      1 [main] -tcsh 3276 child_info::sync: wait failed, pid 976, Win32 
error 1812
    327 [main] -tcsh 3276 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp 
before initialization, retry 0, exit code 0x1000000, errno 11
      1 [main] tcsh 3232 C:\Xwin\bin\tcsh.exe: *** fatal error - 
couldn't allocate heap, Win32 error 487, base 0x7A0000, top 0x87E000, 
reserve_size 905216, allocsize 909312, page_const 4096
310590390 [main] -tcsh 3276 child_info::sync: wait failed, pid 3232, 
Win32 error

310591317 [main] -tcsh 3276 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp 
before ini
tialization, retry 0, exit code 0x1000000, errno 11

  Also, the last Xterm that I started from the start menu hung with this 
error:  No more processes.


thanks,

jerry
