I updated to 1.15.1-2 and placed the crash-reporter into cygwin64/bin. A
crash report has been submitted to your server. The same problem still
persists.

Thanks very much.

Could you please also install the xorg-server-debuginfo package, remove xorg_cygwin_crash_reporter_gui and show the log you get then?

I just installed cygwin/X on a freshly installed Windows 7 Professional (64bit).

When trying to start XWin Server, it crashes with signal 11 (Segmentation fault)

My installation is as follows:
Release: 1.15.0.0
Package: version 1.15.0-2 built 2014-01-11

Thanks for the bug report.

The current XWin version is 1.15.1-2.  Perhaps you could try again with
that?

If that doesn't resolve your problem, I'm afraid that the log doesn't
contain enough information for me to identify the cause of the crash.

Could you then install the xorg-server-debuginfo package, which enables
a more useful backtrace to be generated in the log, and try again?

With 1.15.1, I also enabled a tool I have been working to automate
sending better crash information using minidumps.  If you would like to
try that, download it from [1] (anonymous ftp) and put it into /usr/bin
and reproduce your crash again.
