Here's the info you asked for:

$ cygcheck -c XFree86-xserv
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
XFree86-xserv        4.3.0-20       OK

My installation is a new install from last week using the Base packages, no
additions except XFree86, no config changes.

Well, then your installation was from an out of date mirror. XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-20 was released on October 17th, and there have been 20 versions released since then with major changes:

Please rerun Cygwin's setup.exe and let it update your distribution for you. A known-good mirror is mirrors.kernel.org.

By the way, could you report the mirror that you used? Somebody should check it for trouble.

Hope that helps,

Harold
