I'm sorry, but I don't understand the relationship between the XP 
virtual machines (running 32-bit Cygwin?) and the 64-bit Cygwin X server 
running on a Windows 7 machine.  Please give a detailed, step-by-step 
recipe for producing the problem.  And please attach cygcheck output as 
requested here:

   http://cygwin.com/problems.html

Also, since you say this was working until your last Cygwin update, 
maybe you could check /var/log/setup.log and/or /var/log/setup.log.full 
to see which packages got updated.  By reverting to previous versions 
one at a time, you should be able to figure out which update broke 
things for you.

Finally, if you decide that this is related to the recent X-server 
updates (and you're sure you have the latest version installed), you'd 
be better off asking for help on the cygwin-xfree list.
