So the new X server ignores the command line switch
"-silent-dup-error" and on my cygtexmacs installation, if I run
starttexmacs.bat when X is already running I get an error message with
a horrible ping.

Turns out the way to avoid this is to replace the following line in
starttexmacs.bat:

%RUN% XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error

with the following 2 lines

tasklist | \WINDOWS\system32\find.exe "XWin.exe"
if errorlevel 1 %RUN% XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error

just thought you might like to know!
