So far as I know the syntax for $DISPLAY requires two characzers more, i.e.:
    export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
or  export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
I do not have read the sources but try to set the environment variable
instead of passing the option to LyX itself. Maybe putenv() within CygWIn
doesn't work correctly!
