The -2 build was borked. I linked the static versions of the libs
against the shared version of Xt, this is why it fails to work properly.
I got confused during the packaging and forgot to switch the libs to
shared.
The new -3 build uses shared libs and everything should be fine again.

Yes, see above.
As for a WFU, I don't want to publish Nicholas's package address, but I
have uploaded the binary and source packages here:
http://www.msu.edu/~huntharo/cygwin/lesstif/lesstif-0.93.91-3.tar.bz2
(3.1 MiB)
http://www.msu.edu/~huntharo/cygwin/lesstif/lesstif-0.93.91-3-src.tar.bz2
(2.98 MiB)
I am almost done with a rebuild of the source package on my machine. I
will post the packages afterwards if the build completes.

Hmm... I still can't reproduce the problem of not being able to move a
window. You have tried running with both "-rootless" and without any
flags at all right (which would run in windowed mode. You aren't using
-multiwindow when testing mwm, right? That might cause the sort of
problem you are describing.
