1.7.1: no xdmcp login prompt after upgrade

[Paxton, Michael]

That is a good suggestion; I will try that this weekend. Should that
prove to work, would that then suggest something in Cygwin/X's name
resolution is broken? This worked "as-is" under 1.5.25; it is broken
under 1.7.1 - what changed?

Did you try to do use numeric ip addresses and the -from switch to see 
if it produces a different result? Like:
XWin -query xdmcp.numeric.host.address -from your.own.numeric.address
