After I've upgraded to cygwin-1.7 my emacs takes 30-40 seconds to

disabling my antivirus has no affect on emacs's opening time. As far
as I can tell other X programs behave similarly to the way they did
before the upgrade. Any help would be appreciated. The output of
'cygcheck -s -v -r' is attached.
LANG = 'C.UTF-8'
You are probably being bitten by [1]
As far as I can tell, this is a general problem with X, but cygwin
unfortunately encounters it in a default install because (a) the default
locale is a UTF-8 locale, and (b) we don't install the CJK fonts by default.
Workarounds you might try are (a) install the font packages font-isas-misc,
font-jis-misc and font-daewoo-misc (and restart your server), or (b) set your
locale to a non-UTF-8 one.
We need to do something about this, but as the discussion in the bug should
make clear, we're not sure what :-)
