While executing the command "Xwin Server" from Windows 8.1, the server

/usr/bin/startxwin"
The file C:\cygwin64\run.exe.stackdump is produced. Instead I expect,
however, an X server process and an xterm window.
On the other hand, starting first "Cygwin64 terminal" does create a text
console shell, and running
startxwin &
from this shell does give me an X server process and an xterm window.
A complete removal of the C:\cygwin64 directory and reinstalling did not
help. Afterwards, reinstalling xinit did not help.
This issue persists for a few months already. Last year, XWin started
without problems.
Unfortunately, the stackdump in your previous report [1] didn't quite
contain enough information to investigate this problem. I've made a
small improvement in how the stackdumps are made [2] since then, so if
you can upgrade and provide the stackdump file, perhaps we can discover
why this crash is happening.
