After normal startup of bash, the following command hangs after printing
the header row:

$ typeperf '\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time' -si 1 -sc 2

--
Solution: insert 'chcp 1252' in cygwin.bat before calling bash.exe:

-- cygwin.bat begin --
@echo off
chcp 1252
chdir /d E:\cygwin\bin
bash --login -i
-- cygwin.bat end --

When bash (or another shell) is started after executing 'chcp 1252', the
typeperf command works appropriately.

Regards.
