Dan,

I am running 20.1 bash in NT emacs 20.2.1 without problem after I added
the following to my
..emacs file and the to start the shell you do 'M-x bash' rather than
'M-x shell'

;;
;; Set up the shell handling for Cygnus build 19
;;
(defun bash ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((binary-process-input t)
        (binary-process-ouput nil))
    (shell)))

Hope that helps.
-Vos
