The patch is needed, so please just leave it and close the bugzilla,
if you like.

Again this patch is needed, however the '#define' logic doesn't work for
me (lots of warnings).

-#if defined(WIN32) && !defined(__CYGWIN__)
-#include <X11/Xwinsock.h>
-#endif
 #include <X11/Xos.h>
 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <time.h>
-#if !defined(WIN32) || !defined(__MINGW32__)
+#if defined(WIN32) && !defined(__CYGWIN__)
+#include <X11/Xwinsock.h>
+#else
 #include <sys/time.h>
 #include <sys/resource.h>
 #endif

Works for me (my original patch had a logic error, masked because it then
working for me anyway!)

#11 and #12 need more work..I use an environmental variable.
I just match equivalent code already in the InitOuput.c file.

#10 is still wrong and doesn't fix the function.
both '*''s need removing (my original patch fixed my crash
but the sizeof typo remained!)
-            memcpy (*ppDaddy, prop->data, sizeof (WindowPtr));
+            memcpy (ppDaddy, prop->data, sizeof (WindowPtr));

No problem.

Your miext/shadow code fixes works brilliantly for me.

The mieq.c change partially works but has serious flaws
(frequent crashes and incorrect mouse movement tracking with 'xeyes' etc)
I've had a go at updating this in the past..with the same results!

I've always held off applying my patches to git
(and/or worked via bugzillas) as the code
is shared by Cygwin/X and should be checked by them.
(no one maintains Cygwin/X currently)

Thanks
