What I am doing now is
1) dos batch file
@echo off
bash --login -e /home/antoine/runemacs.sh
pause
2) contents of runemacs.sh
#!/bin/sh
/usr/X11R6/bin/xinit.exe
3) I am starting xemacs out of my ~/.xinitrc
exec xterm -geometry 80x66+0+0 -name login -e
"/usr/local/bin/i686-pc-cygwin/xemacs"
Tedious, but I have created an icon for the first bat file on my quick start
bar, and I can get my xemacs started.
