I was able to get my hands on a Solaris running openwindows.....
The xterm client on the as400 works fine using the Solaris Xserver.
The same xterm client on the as400 does not work with cygwin's
Xserver.
This leeds me to belive that the problem is with cygwin......

It hasn't been (I think) recently tested, but there is a port of xterm
to os390 which does some translation to/from EBCDIC. There's a
README.os390 in the source-tarball for xterm (see my webpage for
instance).
I can give advice and fix bugs, but don't have an os390 myself.
