Hello,

What does `echo $TERM' tells you? (I'm guessing TERM=3Dcygwin)
Does `export TERM=3Dxterm' solve the problem?
Note that it works for me whatever TERM is: cygwin, xterm, screen...
I can only force to fail if I set TERM to nonsense `TERM=3Dsjdfjsfjsf'

(What I don't know is why TERM=3Dcygwin fails for you)

Regards.
