I don't think this is true - like almost all programs, x2goclient.exe
starts fine with an incorrect cwd.  The problem arises only when
x2goclient tries to start VcXsrv.

Also, it's rather hard to figure out the source of the problem from
the "Can't start X Server / Please check your installation" message.
