Perhaps we need an xorg-base package or something to pull in xorg-server and xinit on a fresh install ?
... and I would suggest to create the link as
/usr/bin/mkshortcut -AP -i /usr/bin/XWin.exe -n "Cygwin-X/XWin Server"
-w "" -a /usr/bin/startxwin.bat /usr/bin/run.exe
i.e. the target should be:
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe C:\cygwin\bin\startxwin.bat
or similar.
