TERM=cygwin is correct.  But it also needs to be exported.

TERM=cygwin
export TERM

or

export TERM=cygwin

Either works in bash.  Also be sure the file is not DOS text mode
(contains <CR><NL> pairs).  If it does, then the actual value of TERM is
being set to cygwin<CR> which is not a valid terminal name.

If these doesn't fix the problem, then I have not a clue.
