Xpm enabled NTEmacs hangs if your %PATH% includes cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin.
LoadLibrary("libxpm.dll") never returns in w32_delayed_load() in src/image.c.

Since the most cygwin DLLs are not meant to be loaded by non-cygwin apps (if you do, they hang), I suggest we simply remove "libxpm.dll" and "libXpm-nox4.dll" from image-library-alist.
(AFAIK Emacs on Cygwin does not use this variable.)
