I would say that it didn't result in a working X server in view of the error 
message, "D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up".

The documentation on the Cygwin/X home page (http://x.cygwin.com/) says that you 
should install the xinit package in order to use the Cygwin X server.  And xinit 
depends on dbus-x11.  But not everyone reads the documentation before 
installing, so maybe xlaunch should require xinit.

Jon?  Yaakov?
