Button 3 events screwy

I'm having trouble with button 3 events under both KDE and TWM. It seems as though the
button events are broken for button 3. Button events for button 1 are fine.
Running xev either locally or remotely results in the following:

             Button 1                                Button 3
             --------                                --------
Action           Event                  Action           Event
------           -----                  ------           -----
Press button     Button Press Event     Press button     nothing
move mouse       Button Motion Events   move mouse       Button Motion Events
Release button   Button Release Event   Release button   Button Press Event - button 5
                                                         Button Release Event - button 5

Click button     Button Press Event     Click button     Button Press Event
                 Button Release Event                    Button Release Event

I'm running Win2k, SP2, with latest (downloaded last week) Cygwin/XFree.

I've tried this with -engine 4 and -engine 1 and with -emulate3buttons 100 and without;
always the same.

Any help appreciated.


Cheers, Mark
