Summary: xdvi in cygwin crashes

Initial Comment:
When I open a latex-generated dvi file as attached (file is not corrupted and works for other dvi viewers). xdvi also worked fine until I changed a paragraph in that file. Deleting that paragraph again does not help.

   if T1lib doesn't return a usable glyph (e.g. at very small
\magnification factors
