This is interesting, because the way to use XLaunch is the one which is described on the Cygwin/X website.

Anyway, I did I started it from the Windows command prompt, as you suggested (without the -listen option because I don't plan to use ssh), and when I then start my 

    DISPLAY=:0.0 xterm &

I get the error message 

    xterm: cannot load font "-Misc-Fixed-bold-R-*-*-13-120-75-75-C-120-ISO10646-1"

which means that at least the DISPLAY is not a problem anymore. Don't know why it can't find a suitable font, since I have installed plenty of fonts from the Cygwin X11 category. What still does not work is the "X-icon" in the notification area.

As a further test, I started

      DISPLAY=:0.0 xeyes &

because this for sure doesn't need any font. This worked too.
