FVWM: fvwm2 on cygwin/XFree86

Had anyone actually tried using fvwm2 on cygwin/xfree86?

It seems to work, but I am having trouble getting the alt key to really
work. I have it set-up so that the mouse button 1 and the alt key will move
the window:
Mouse 1 WTFSI M Move

This works via my vncserver (a xfree86 port), but not on cygwin/xfree86.

I'm not convinced that this is a fvwm problem, I am just wondering if
someone has seen this.

BTW, I am seeing something strange in xev (under cygwin), but the
cygwin/xfree86 folks seem to think it is okay. I run xev, and when I press
and hold a modifier (any one, not just alt) it repeats like any other key
(say, the letter "m"). I don't know if this is contributing to the problem
or not, other programs seem to understand that I hit, say "alt-q" instead of
just "q" (like vim).

Is this enough to go on? Thanks.
