Eclipse running on debian with remote display to cygwin X11 starts all squashed to a point

I've thought about trying it but it's not really the behaviour I want.

"uname -r" in cygwin reports:
 2.9.0(0.318/5/3)

sb@mccoy:~$ cygcheck -c | grep xorg
xorg-server               1.19.6-1                OK
xorg-server-common        1.19.6-1                OK
xorg-x11-fonts-dpi75      7.5-3                   OK
xorg-x11-fonts-misc       7.5-3                   OK
sb@mccoy:~$

The debian version is 9.3.

The eclipse version is eclipse oxygen, installed with the eclipse
installer from
 https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/eclipse-packages/

I got the same squashed up window from eclipse-neon installed in the
same way.
