Tried it. Does not work. X11 is fired up and terminates immediately. I am
using:
~/.startxwinrc:
#!/bin/bash
xterm &
exec sleep infinity

changing "exec sleep infinity" to wait does not change anything.
"~/.startxwinrc" is mode 0755:
-rwxr-xr-x  1 sct-muc user     42 30. Sep 09:12 .startxwinrc

And XLaunch is started with:
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /bin/xlaunch -p /usr/bin -run
/home/sct-muc/.config/XLaunch/config.xlaunch

config.xlaunch holds:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<XLaunch WindowMode="MultiWindow" ClientMode="NoClient" LocalClient="True"
 Display="0" RemoteProtocol="" LocalProgram="xterm" RemoteProgram="xterm"
 RemoteHost="" RemoteUser="" XDMCPHost="" XDMCPBroadcast="False"
 XDMCPIndirect="False" Clipboard="True" ExtraParams="" Wgl="True"
 DisableAC="False" XDMCPTerminate="False" SSHKeyChain="False"
 SSHTerminal="True" ExtraSSH=""/>
