First, thank you to Yakov for the "set mouse=a" suggestion. I've
had that in my Unix .vimrc for so long and didn't need in it in my
Windows _vimrc for gvim that I forgot about needing it when the
mouse didn't work in my Cygwin vim.
That fixed the problem completely for the case where I run an xterm
on a Linux machine, ssh to my Windows machine, and run Cygwin vim on
that Windows machine through that xterm. However, as Sun and Albie
have reported, it doesn't fix the whole problem when running Cywin
vim in a non-X rxvt running on the Windows machine: I can split a
window and select the active window with the mouse, but I still
cannot drag the status line.
Regards,
Gary
