xfig-3.2.5c-2.x86_64 segfaults on save-as and export in current cygwin64 on Windows 10

[Stephen Nadas <stephen dot nadas at gmail dot com>]

Hi,

in current 64 bit cygwin (2.2.1(0.289/5/3) 2015-08-20) I get segfaults
when ever I do save as or export in xfig; this makes it unusable. It
happens when I click the "save as" or "export" button.

please see various attached (cygcheck.out, Xwin.log) or below (gdb stack trace)

FWIW, a) 32 bit doesn't do this & b) this machine has 3200x1800
display (X is okay)

Thanks, please advise with any thoughts, request additional info or
things for me to try.

Best regards,
Steve
