RE: Pre-compiled X11R6.4 Libraries/Clients and Cygwin1.1.4


John, please read the cygwin/xfree main page. It has been recently
updated to reflect the support for b20 (none) and where to get binaries.

There is a how-to on installation on it's way. 

For development, you should probably download all the precompiled
binaries, including the development tarball, and crack open gdb and see
what is causing the seg fault. Also you may need to get the cgywin 1.1.4
source, and build a debug build of cygwin1.dll
