With an older version of Cygwin I had constructed a cut down

It was about 40Mb, installed.
This approach is not working well at all for the current release. Last
time around I just tossed things into a folder to temporarily hide them,
and by process of elimination winnowed it down to that small size. This
time there are many, many, MANY more dll's that are required for the
server to start, at least via this method:
C:\cygwinX\bin\run.exe --quote /usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c "cd; exec
/usr/bin/startxwin"
For instance, cyggtk-x11-2.0.0.dll. Take it out and the X11 server does
not start.
That dll, according to "ldd" has everything but the kitchen sink linked
into it. It isn't linked directly into the server though, it is needed
for "xwin-xdg-menu.exe",
an accessory program, which if removed from /usr/bin, also results in
the server not starting.
look on
/etc/X11/xinit/startxwinrc
It is calling xwin-xdg-menu
