He is only dependent upon cygipc because Cygwin/X is dependent upon it 
and has not yet been rebuilt against cygserver.  I have been waiting to 
do this rebuild until I release the new Cygwin/X build from the xorg 
tree on freedesktop.org.  I am gearing up to do this... possibly next 
week as a sort of 1.0pre-1 release since the official 1.0 release won't 
be made for at least a few weeks.  When I do that rebuild it will be 
against cygserver and cygipc will be dropped as a dependency.
