I have found perhaps something interesting.
1. If I start the Xserver with
start XWin-4.2.0-20 -multiwindow -nolisten tcp
I can change the xterm window title using -T option on the command line.
2. If I start the Xserver with
start XWin-4.2.0-28 -multiwindow
again I can change the xterm window title using -T option.
However,
3. If I start the Xserver with
start XWin-4.2.0-28 -multiwindow -nolisten tcp
then I cannot change the xterm window title using -T option. It will
always remain "Cygwin/XFree86 X rl"
Any explanations?

There seems to be some questions about why the title on the Windows-window does not
change when running with "-multiwindow". The answer is simply this: title changes
are a feature of X Window Managers that the MultiWindow Window Manager does not yet
implement.
Would it be easy to implement this feature? Probably. Any volunteers?
