Hi Steinar,
forgot to ask, there is stackdump  of Xwin ?

usually the stack dump are under /usr/bin

   ls /usr/bin | grep stack

but they can also be on your home directory
or in other places.

Re-looking at your Xwin.0.log
------------------------------------------------
XWin was started with the following command line:

XWin :0 -multiwindow -clipboard -wgl

ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens
winInitializeScreenDefaults - primary monitor w 1920 h 1080
winInitializeScreenDefaults - native DPI x 120 y 120
[ 24028.656] (II) xorg.conf is not supported
[ 24028.656] (II) See http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html for 
more information
[ 24028.656] LoadPreferences: /cygdrive/d/Profiles/sbang/.XWinrc not found
[ 24028.656] LoadPreferences: Loading /etc/X11/system.XWinrc
[ 24028.656] LoadPreferences: Done parsing the configuration file...
[ 24028.671] winDetectSupportedEngines - RemoteSession: no
[ 24028.687] winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw4 installed, allowing 
ShadowDDNL
[ 24028.687] winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 
00000005------------------------------------------------

on my log the next record is
    winSetEngine - Multi Window or Rootless => ShadowGDI

so it seems something is going wrong there

from "man Xwin" I see two possible options for troubleshooting
engine detection faults

-------------------------------------------------------
        -engine engine_type_id
                This option, which is intended for developers, overrides 
the  server's
                automatically  selected  drawing  engine type.  This 
parameter will be
                ignored if the specified drawing engine type is not 
supported  on  the
                current system.

                Default  behavior is to select the drawing engine with 
optimum perfor‐
                mance that supports the specified depth and window 
configuration.

                The engine type ids are:

                1   Shadow GDI

                4   Shadow DirectDraw Non-Locking
--------------------------------------------------------


on my system both options work, can you check on yours ?

    startxwin -- -engine 4
