  Problem being that doesn't help if you don't already have it installed.

  http://cygwin.com/packages/ is the best place to search.  If it's in the
cygwin distro, that will tell you which package you need installed.

http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=libXm.dll
  Looks like it's shipped with lesstif.

  You can also use the -p option to cygcheck to search from the shell:

/artimi/software/firmware $ cygcheck -p libXm.dll
Found 3 matches for libXm.dll.
lesstif/lesstif-0.93.91-6       lesstif
lesstif/lesstif-0.93.94-2       lesstif
lesstif/lesstif-0.94.4-1        lesstif
/artimi/software/firmware $

    cheers,
      DaveK
