I have a set of latest release of Xarm 1.3.0 for Cygnus Cygwin-B20.
It was compiled with LessTif 0.87.1 and X11R6.4 libraries.
Anyone interested, I am willing to share the precompiled Xarm and Xmext
for Cygwin-B20.
Here are the details for Xarm. It is a good library for MOTIF
developers
and can be of use to Cygwin-MOTIF/C++ developers on Windows NT.

----
The Xarm library is a C++ wrapper of the Motif, Xmext and Xbae
widget libraries.
It supports Motif 1.2, 2.0, LessTiff and CDE.
Key features of Xarm include:
* An inheritance hierarchy that follows the Motif widget
hierarchy.
* A unique callback interface that allows regular C++
member functions to be used as callbacks.
* A C++ interface to the Xt Arg system that frees the
programmer from bugs where XtSetArg(args[17], ...)
is called on an arg array 16 elements long. XarmArg's
are stored in an STL vector for automatic sizing.
* Support for the Xbae Matrix and Caption widgets on systems
where libXbae is installed. The Xbae library is also
available from the Xarm Home Page.
* Several useful widgets in the included Xmext library including
Tab, Dial, Gauge (progress bar), and a Password Field
widget.
* Built-in support for Xpm files. Xpm files may be used
as Pixmap resources in app-defaults files!
* Automatic handling of the conversion to/from XmString's
from regular C/C++ char *'s.
* Tried and tested in free, Commercial and Government software
systems.
