Vista after X compile



The behavior of X on Vista improved some after rebuilding X as described in http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2007-08/msg00021.html.


The problem of interest was that the X would hang if one used the exit menu item of the X icon in the system tray.

After rebuilding X and rebasing all to avoid startup problems, the behavior of the exit menu in the system tray changed (startxwin.sh used to launch X). Instead of hanging, X and it's clients end
unceremoniously. No confirmation dialog is displayed, just


xterm: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) or KillClient on X server "127.0.0.1".

And, a bash process is left hanging.
