At least we're getting *somewhere* :-)
Ok, what happens when entering the two vital commands by hand in the
the
Cygwin Bash Shell (waiting with the second until the X-icon has
appeared)?
XWin -multiwin
xterm -display :0
Reproducible success?
I'll try again from home (I went into the office to simplify things).
Here
is what I got (sorry for the word-wrap):

Trying from home with the VPN active, again, it works; here is the ps
from the xterm that showed up:

After quitting and destroying any processes from a DOS window, trying
startxwin.bat with echo on
First off all, nothing appeared (no X icon, no window). Here is what ps
in a DOS window shows after running startxwin.bat:

Here is the output with blank lines and REM lines removed (I added the
2nd SET DISPLAY, CYGWIN is set to tty elsewhere as well as here, I don't
know what that is at the end of the PATH):

At this point I run Cygwin Bash Shell and from that window I run
startxwin.bat and it works fine, even after closing the Cygwin Bash
Shell.
