XWin won't run xterm on start

[Jaakov]

Ken, I'll try your file, thanks a lot!

But let us recapitulate that such files get outdated very quickly. 
Frankly speaking, I would be most probably lost when in need to adapt 
some part of your file.

(E.g., the documentation
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/man1/startxwin.1.html
from January 28, 2016, mentions a .startxwinrc which no more works due 
to  -profile -> --profile.)
