I applied a patch which is supposed to fix this problem. Your STC works for me and everything else I tried, including X and Emacs in X11 GUI mode still work. Please try the latest snapshot from https://cygwin.com/snapshots/ I'm not expecting that my first cut works OOTB, so I'd be glad for more testing.
