Dear Matic
I repeated the steps as:
First I removed cygwin fully and installed it again. Then

1. installed everything as you mentioned.
2. Issued the command  XWin :0 -clipboard -multiwindow &  xterm &
3. Open another cygwin terminal and issued ./xcrysden from xcrysden top
directory.
4. But no luck. Still giving the same issue.

Thanks.
