your code is fine and works with and without X, no crash.

So I doubt it is a specific octave issue, it is more likely
linked to your machine.

2 possible causes:

1) BLODA 
   http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.using.html#faq.using.bloda

2) Dll address collisions
   have you tried rebaseall ?


The first is obvious and it is the biggest problem
working with Cygwin, specially Antivirus.

The second, as octave loads a lot of Dll's, is more easy 
to trigger than for simpler programs.

For example, this is the list of loaded dll's with their base address from Sysinternals Process Explorer on my machine.
