Good idea.  Changed it to the following and tested. It keeps the last 
two versions.

======================after this line
@echo off
set CYGXTOP=%~dp0

C:
chdir "%CYGXTOP%\var\log\xwin"
move XWin.0.log.1 XWin.0.log.2
move XWin.0.log XWin.0.log.1
chdir "%CYGXTOP%\bin"

start Xwin :0 -multiwindow
======================before this line
