I had the same problems. No keyboard (I use abnt2), some 
missing files... What I did ? Created my own installation based 
on df-startx.

Here are the changes:

Add bin/sh.exe (otherwise usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/xkbcomp.exe 
fails) from 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/release/ash/

Add usr/X11R6/bin/cygxkbfile-1.dll (needed by 
usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/xkbcomp.exe) from 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/release/X11/xorg-x11-bin-dlls/

Add usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/ and 
usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy from 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/release/X11/xorg-x11-etc/

Add usr/X11R6/lib/X11/{rgb.txt,Xcms.txt,XErrorDB,XKeysymDB} 
from 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/release/X11/xorg-x11-libs-data/

Update usr/X11R6/bin/XWin.exe from 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/release/X11/xorg-x11-xwin/

Add usr/X11R6/bin/XWin_GL.exe (an alternate server) from 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/release/X11/xorg-x11-xwin-gl/
