If that is the problem raised and solved in the thread that starts
at http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2001-q4/msg00523.html, it
sounds a lot like the problem discussed in "BUG: Send() Fails with
Error WSAENOBUFS Over Blocking Socket",
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q201213,
tho' it doesn't sound as if the fix applied to xserver is any of
those suggested in that article.

The problems I'm seeing on win98/SE seem very similar to those
reported in the threads "OpenSSH + 1.1.6 strangely wedges W98SE
networking", http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2000-12/msg00000.html,
and "
OpenSSH 2.3.0p1 Win98 listen: No buffer space available; the
socket cannot be connected",
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2000-12/msg00725.html.  It's not
*entirely* clear from the archives whether these were ever
resolved.
