I have a slow RTC connection unfortunately.

See my other reply for how to avoid needing to do this.

Please try this patch (against current CVS):

Why have you modified the patch ?

So that it applies cleanly against setup HEAD.
Your original patch contains 2 hunks:
1) remove some code
2) add it back later in the function
Hunk 2 has been comitted to cvs HEAD, but Hunk 1 has not.

If it works, great. If not, you're on your own.

hello:
In my cygwin installation the xserver stopped working. So I was trying to
reinstall the entire package. The installation proceeds till it comes to the
X11/defautl bitmap package. I notices at this point it leaks memory and
eventually crashes.
anybody has any clues?

Howdy,
I recently noticed the 64-bit cygwin installer crashes under wine.
After further debugging, it appears that the issue is that cygwin is
misaligning the stack, causing a crash. I've copy/pasted the analysis
below:
Hello folks,

Wine can always play the "It's not documented to work that way card" but
the bottom line is still that it is not a "platform" that we are interested

It can be true about the SSD and RAM costs but it's not the same kind of
