For comparison, here are the extensions available in latest X.org:

number of extensions:    27
    BIG-REQUESTS
    Composite
    DAMAGE
    DOUBLE-BUFFER
    DPMS
    DRI2
    GLX
    Generic Event Extension
    MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
    MIT-SHM
    RANDR
    RECORD
    RENDER
    SGI-GLX
    SHAPE
    SYNC
    X-Resource
    XC-MISC
    XFIXES
    XFree86-DGA
    XFree86-VidModeExtension
    XINERAMA
    XInputExtension
    XKEYBOARD
    XTEST
    XVideo
    XVideo-MotionCompensation

I can't see anything important missing from the Cygwin server though.
It has all the obvious stuff like RENDER.

Dan, doesn't virt-viewer use some funky stuff to do screen scaling?  I
thought it was GLX (which both servers have) but perhaps it's
something else.
