This is XWin.exe, not your "entire cygwin session" (whatever that means).
As such, please use the cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com list. I have directed
this reply there.

I don't know what Cygwin version 1.3-4 was/is.
I suggest you visit http://www.cygwin.com/problems.html to see how to form
a useful bug report with the proper supporting information.
I also suggest you use http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe to update your
installation (especially the cygwin package, emacs package, and all
XFree86 packages) before soliciting further support. If you are not
up-to-date, you will not get much help.
