You can use the -multimonitor command-line parameter for XWin.exe to create a window that spans multiple monitors.
However, this flag does not yet work in conjunction with the -multiwindow command-line parameter... though it would probably be trivial to make it work.
Are you using the -multiwindow command-line parameter?

I have a windows setup running across two 1280 x 1024 monitors.
More by luck than design I can create a large desktop with xwin, and can drag it to use it over the two monitors.
I have also successfully got kde2 running from startx and it is working nicely, again dragged onto either monitor.
Now the problem - how do I either get xwin to build a window bigger than a single screen, or get it to position it on the second monitor at startup. The idea is to have multiple montors each with a different 'xserver' screen. I have machines with 8 displays running with scrolling information and am trying to move them to Linux via the back door, for which cygwin may provide a half way house.
I'm sure that some simple pointers will advance by understanding of who this bit hangs together <g>
