output from shell call shows up in original cygwin window instead of current terminal


After starting cygwin, I type startx&
 then I type xterm&

 in this xterm, I type ftp mirrors.kernel.org
 and then "anonymous"

 the Password prompt does not show up in the xterm window, but in the
original cygwin shell.

FTP works fine from plain DOS cmd.exe and from the original cygwin

shell, but I get this odd behavior when using an xterm... any idea why?
