I think it's a bug in Cygwin/X multi-window mode, triggered by new code 
in gschem that restores the dialog positions.

Rootless mode appears to work better:
1) Install WindowMaker
2) Close Cygwin/X
3) Type:
$ export DISPLAY=:0
$ X :0 -clipboard -rootless&
<ENTER>
$ wmaker &
<ENTER>
$ xterm

I will try to make a test case and submit a bug report to the Cygwin/X 
project.

Regards,
Cesar
