Well, as a last attempt at trying to figure out why startx/ssh was blue-screening my XP box, I tried something that was mentioned on this list, for different reasons: I uninstalled Zone Alarm Pro 5. Bingo. No blue screen. Everything works fine. Have not installed Zone Alarm v4.x yet, to see

A bluescreen is an error inside the windows kernel. Either the base system it self or some drivers (i suspect the second). Software can only trigger this. But there have been only minor changes in Cygwin/X and I doubt they could lead to a bluescreen since no hardware access has changed. Well,
