tcl/tk fails to connect to display


Hi,
After recently updating cygwin after a period of several months I have
now noticed that I am unable to launch any tcl/tk applications.

$ gitk
Application initialization failed: couldn't connect to display ":0"
Error in startup script: couldn't connect to display ":0"
    while executing
"load /usr/lib/tk8.5/../../bin/libtk8.5.dll Tk"
    ("package ifneeded Tk 8.5.11" script)
    invoked from within
"package require Tk"
    (file "/usr/bin/gitk" line 10)


$ wish
Application initialization failed: couldn't connect to display ":0"
%

Not sure what has changed. A lot of packages were updated so I don't
know where to look. Any recommendations?

Thanks!
Jeremy
