The closest thread that I found is 
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-xfree/2004-06/msg00023.html.
The problem is I'm using telnet, not ssh.  I then gave it a try with ssh -Y, 
it also does not work for me.
The fact that it's working for Exceed to tell me that there might some 
limitation with Cygwin X Server but I can't find anywhere indicates that 
drag-n-drop is not allowed???
