After some searching I believe this post is describing the same issue:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2009-10/msg00101.html
Was there any resolution? This is pretty easy to reproduce with the
example given below - it just doesn't seem to recognize the drop event
between the drag and drop between 2 java windows in linux.
Thanks,
Luke
