Most folks don't build the X-based cygwin XEmacs. They use the
ms-windows-based cygwin XEmacs. (Yes, that's right: XEmacs, when built
on cygwin, can use either native mswindowing stuff, or X windowsing
stuff).
I think the X-based cygwin XEmacs may be suffering bitrot, BUT...
just go to xfree.cygwin.com for the X distribution that works with
cygwin. Read the (cygwin-xfree) FAQ. Read the (cygwin-xfree) download
and installation instructions. etc.
