Suspected bug in Cygwin's X11 port.

xterm*VT100.Translations only when the mouse is over the window with focus

(click to focus)

This only ONLY happens with CYGWIN, not with X11 on Linux.

This is with respect to the function keys.  These are not mapped in my
window manager, but in xterm.

Pressing a function key, like F1, always writes to the window with
focus, but under CYGWIN, it only performs the X11/xterm translations
with the mouse is  directly  hovering over the window with focus.
Otherwise, the untranslated key is sent to that window.

So, I always have to move the mouse to the window in order to get the
correct text to the window.
