Hello,

Since a recent massive update of Cygwin, I am not able to run startx 
(see beyond for complete output).
I have already closely followed the FAQ 9.15 and 9.16. , with no success.
I have, most notably, completely rebased Cygwin .
I have also checked the similar previous case here : 
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-06/msg00122.html, but the special 
version of strace.exe for diagnosis is no more available here : 
https://cygwin.com/faq.html#faq.using.bloda
Regular strace provide this :
$ strace -o log XWin
       0 [main] strace (7872) C:\cygwin\bin\strace.exe: *** fatal error 
- cygheap base mismatch detected - 0x612FB400/0x26FB400.
This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the 
cygwin DLL.
Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility
and delete all but the most recent version.  The most recent version 
*should*
reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have
installed the cygwin distribution.  Rebooting is also suggested if you
are unable to find another cygwin DLL.
Segmentation fault


However, I have already checked cygwin1.dll, rebased everything and 
rebooted many time. startx still does not work.

Any help appreciated.
