After I've upgraded to cygwin-1.7 my emacs takes 30-40 seconds to

Sorry, I hadn't noticed what you'd written about xterm starting up normally, I guess that tends to suggest this is an emacs-specific problem in some way rather than the general X fontset problem I assumed it was...

I've conducted a few repeated measurements and it looks as though
setting LANG to be en_US somewhat reduces the start time of emacs-x11:
instead of ~30 seconds with LANG=C.UTF-8, it take ~27 seconds
LANG=en_US. While this is ~10% less, waiting 27 seconds for emacs to
open still seems unreasonable.

Any other ideas?

Hmm....

You don't have any emacs fonts being set via ~/.Xdefaults or ~/.Xresources?
