Don't know about gvim, but I'm sure this is completely wrong in general, 
as I'm doing this right now (and have been regularly doing it for some 
years). I run xterm, emacs, gnuplot, ...

Do you have xauth installed in the jail?
Does it work with "ssh -Y"?
Anything in the logs?
What about ssh_config and sshd_config?

Is your jail local? I'm talking about jails on remote systems (as the OP 
did). Perhaps it's a limitation of *local* jails? I admin I never tried 
this...
