Earle,

The normal path for any Cygwin-related patches it that developers send them to me, I apply them to my local tree, I make a test release, I ball the fixes up and send them to patches at XFree86, Alan Hourihane picks up whatever I send him and commits it. XFree86's Bugzilla was just recently setup... this will make an interesting test case to see if anything will actually happen with the patch. I think all the XFree86 CVS committers know that Alan handles the Cygwin patches, so I am not sure if they will even look at it. Oh well, we will find out.

This isn't really XWin.exe related, but I've just posted a patch to the XFree86 devel group to allow you to run xload locally under cygwin. There's no rwhod so remote doesn't work, but you can still always xload from a remote machine. Even without remote sensing it's still pretty handy and more customizable than the Windows task manager. This means when you run window managers that swallow xload into their taskbars, they work 100% under cygwin...
