invalid Window parameter error through ssh X forwarding

[Richard Gourdeau]

I have just upgraded my xfree-cygwin setup (Xwin serv Release 4.3.0-64, 
etc.).

Some apps that worked through ssh without any problem with my previous 
setup (Xwin serv Release 4.3.0-58, etc.) are now exiting with errors 
messages related to an invalid Window parameter.

For example, in a xterm after an ssh connect with X forwarding, gftp 
starts but as soon as I try to select a menu item, I get the following 
error:
=======
[gourdeau@gourdeau1 gourdeau]$  gftp &
[1] 13684
[gourdeau@gourdeau1 gourdeau]$ Gdk-ERROR **: BadWindow (invalid Window 
parameter)
   serial 3647 error_code 3 request_code 38 minor_code 0
Gdk-ERROR **: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)
   serial 3648 error_code 10 request_code 102 minor_code 0

[1]+  Exit 1                  gftp
=======
I have notice that the mouse cursor remains as an "X" and does not 
change to an arrow when moved over the "gftp" application.

I am using the "startxwin.sh" script from the distribution (unmodified) 
to start Xwin in multiwindow mode.

Should I specify some optional parameters or is this a known problem ?
