What about
XFree86-lib
XFree86-xwinclip
And even if it is not required to recompile the two packages I'd update them
to keep all binaries in sync with the other programs.

I would leave it as it is now. Only 4.2 programs are still linked
with the old dll and every program which was recompiled for cygwin
1.5 should have been linked with the 4.3 dlls.
It's good for compatibility with older (not yet recompiled) packages
and there is no need to change anything.
