         + Incompatible with XP & Vista
         + Unmodified except for strip-nondeterminism being run on .gz files
+     - src/onmainwindow.{cpp,h}: don't error out directly if starting the X.Org
+       Server failed on Windows. Instead, try starting it three times, each
+       time with a higher DISPLAY offset. On busy client machines, several
+       clients raced for the sockets previously and often failed to start. Also

+       connection checks. A dead server won't be able to listen on a socket in
+       the first place.
+     - {src/{onmainwindow.{cpp,h},help.cpp},man/man1/x2goclient.1}: add new
+       option --xserver-start-limit, replacing the formerly hardcoded limit of
+       three tries.
+     - copy-deps-win32.bat: update to 20180615-1 Cygwin bundle, shipping with
+       a further modified OpenSSH Server version at 7.7p1-1-x2go1 and without
+       chgrp.
+     - src/onmainwindow.cpp: disable private host key permissions check in
+       OpenSSH Server on Windows. Fixes: #1156.

 ===== Windows-Specific Bug Fixes =====
-[[https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/600|nx-libs issue 600]] When you connect to an x2go server with nx-libs 3.6 beta (3.5.99.x) rather than nx-libs 3.5.0.x stable, you would likely experience the Desktop flashing when maximizing window. (Despite the title of the issue, it can be experienced with a single screen/monitor on Windows.) Many Linux distros have adopted nx-libs 3.6 beta, such as Fedora 28 & Ubuntu 18.04 . (x2goserver 4.1.0.0 added support for nx-libs 3.6 beta, so it is correlated with it.)

 ===== Noteworthy Windows-Specific Bugs =====
 [[http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=611|bug 611]] The server cannot be added to the known_hosts file (and thus you cannot connect to the server) when both of these conditions are met: 1. Your Windows username has non-English characters. 2 Those characters are in a different language than the Windows "system locale".
