I just noticed something. Even though ghostview (gv) comes up and 
appears to run I can never open a file with it. It says "Unknown device: 
x11" when I try to open a PS or EPS file. The only difference I noticed 
between gv in cygwin and that in linux is that the following library is 
not available under cygwin:

/usr/lib/ghostscript/7.05/X11.so


I wonder if this is the same reason why geomview won't run under cygwin. 
In geomview's case (debug mode) I get a message saying

Warning: XmManager ClassInitialize: XmeTraitSet failed
Error: attempt to add non-widget child "DropSiteManager" to parent 
"Geomview" which supports only widgets.


Any ideas as to what is missing for ghostview to run properly?
