Hans,
From a Cygwin bash shell, run 'set' and report the values of any of the
following:
XAPPLRESDIR
XCMSDB
XKEYSYMDB
XNLSPATH

Sorry, setxkbmap doesn't work, not even in the xterm that is started

Defining keys with xmodmap by hand works and xmodmap -pk gives you
than the output with the third definition (= AltGr definition) of a key.
What should I do with the cygwin X-window system to get it running well?

Sorry for being persistent, but I guess I have to revisit alt-Gr key
problem using a Spanish keyboard.
Just tried xserv version 4.3.0-30 (I used the 4.3.0-21 before), and
starting X-windows in either a xfree bash shell as well as the CDE
environment xmodmap tells me that I have only 2 definitions per key
(normal key usage and Shift-key combination). So the Alt-Gr
definition is not defined for the keys.
I've just tried
$ setxkbmap es
Pressing AltGr + '1' results in '|'
but xmodmap -pke does not print the extra symbols. So this must be a
bug in xmodmap.
For your problem with spanish layout and CDE (which is most likely a
quite old X11 installation) I'd pass you on to xfree86@xfree86.org.
Xf86Config and the es keyboard map have been modified to define
AltGr as Mode_Switch. I tried various startup parameters with the
XWin executable, but no success. I installed xserv 4.3.0-30 over
version 4.3.0-21 using the Cygwin setup program. It's running in
Windows XP.
