Broken fvwm install?

I downloaded the XFree86 cygwin version and the fvwm package.
The fvwm doesn't install itself as the window manager, so I changed the
line in startxwin.sh from "twm &" to "fvwm &". This caused it to load
but it failed to find any *.xpm files with a few hundred error messages.
I went to the fvwm website and downloaded the icons and this went a lot
better, but it is still missing a LOT of *.xpm files as well as "xload"
(which probably doesn't make sense on a Windows 98 system, but why does
the vanilla installation try to load it?)
Shouldn't the cygwin install take care of these issues? What am I
missing? There is NO documentation on what to do about these issues.
