David, Please do not send Cygwin-related questions by private e-mail. All Cygwin questions should be sent to the appropriate Cygwin mailing list (see <http://cygwin.com/lists.html>). I have forwarded this question to the appropriate list, and set the Reply-To: accordingly.
FYI, you can both post to the general Cygwin and Cygwin/X lists without subscribing, and read them via the web archives (see the links from <http://cygwin.com/lists.html>), or use the Gmane list<->news interface (<http://gmane.org/>, or see the link from the main Cygwin page).
