I don't this is true. Basically all the 1.3.6 Windows work
is present in the 1.4.0cvs tree.

I run 1.4.0CVS on Cygwin all the time. Both xforms and qt variants.
With all due respect, Kayvan, you're not running LyX/Win 1.4 at all. You're
running LyX/Posix 1.4 + a few 'tweaks'. My point is, you're running old,
stable, proven code. Or at least as proven as any 1.4 code can be. LyX/Win
is an entirely different kettle of fish with a huge patch file to the Posix
version.
That's why I say on the wiki:
...LyX 1.3.6 cannot really be classified as a minor bug fix release,
especially for Windows users. Large chunks of the code base have been
touched in an attempt to resolve those problems that Windows users have
found with Ruurd’s original ports. We feel confident that LyX 1.3.6 will be
the best ever version of LyX on Windows. We are not confident, however,
that we haven’t introduced any new bugs.
