try
(export CYGWIN=tty;cygstart bash.exe) at a bash prompt...

Basically you need to set the env var CYGWIN to contain 'tty', if you already have
something in CYGWIN, you might want to use:
(export CYGWIN="tty $CYGWIN"; cygstart bash.exe)...

You could set the env-var in a .bat file which then launches cygwin?

You can make the 'tty' setting permanently part of your CYGWIN var by adding
it to your windows environment (system properties, advanced,
Environ vars; user...)
