I don't use X.  I just use RXVT windows on top of the Windows Desktop. 
I don't use Cygwin's version of Gvim.  I use the Windows version.  To
use Gvim from Cygwin, I have a small script (attached) that converts
Cygwin paths to Windows paths and then launches Gvim.  With this setup,
I can use a single version of Gvim from both Windows and Cygwin.

If you'd like more details, email me directly.
