+@unnumberedsubsec Q2.0.16: Cygwin XEmacs won't start: cygXpm-noX4.dll was not found (NEW)
+
+The Cygwin binary distributed with the netinstaller uses an external DLL
+to handle XPM images (such as toolbar buttons).  You may get an error like
+
+    This application has failed to start because cygXpm-noX4.dll was not found.
+    Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
+
+Andy Piper <andy@@xemacs.org> sez:
+
+    cygXpm-noX4 is part of the cygwin distribution under libraries or
+    graphics, but is not installed by default. You need to run the
+    cygwin setup again and select this package.
+
+Ie, reinstalling XEmacs won't help because it is not part of the XEmacs
+distribution.
