This problem was reported 2 1/2 years ago, and its solution was posted here:

   https://sourceware.org/pipermail/cygwin/2018-March/236345.html

The problem and solution have been rediscovered several times since then.  Maybe 
one of the xmgrace users who has reported this would be willing to adopt the 
grace package and finally fix it.
