I just upgraded to the latest version of X11. A program that

The program uses the xview toolkit from
http://www.physionet.org/physiotools/xview/
This is a bug in Xview [1], and the answer to your problem is actually hidden
on that page:
"If you are using Fedora 8, 9, or 10, or any distribution that includes
X.org's libX11 version 1.1, you will need to use the i386-FC8 RPMs (or to
compile XView from the sources included in xview-3.2p1.4-21.1.fc8.src.rpm) to
avoid XAllocID runtime failures in XView applications."
Applications that do not use this toolkit work fine.
I did not recompile the xview library.
You will need to recompile the xview library with the latest patches from that
src rpm applied (or otherwise obtain an updated cygwin binary)
