I haven't tried this, so I'm not sure if there are any issues specific
to Cygwin, but all you should need to do is connect to the Mac with
"ssh -X".

You'll probably have to first enable X11 Forwarding by editing
/etc/sshd_config on the Mac: "X11Forwarding yes".

And turn on Remote Login under System Preferences > Sharing so that
you can log in through SSH.
