Well, a "few more details" is an understatement, because this doesn't
really tell us much more than we could deduce from your first message.

I am unable to repeat this, following your recipe, except in my case I
am using WinNT4.  (And please don't ask if I missed something like
"telnet" because if I said I followed it then I followed it.)

I am afraid you and others who are experiencing this will have to
debug it, or otherwise figure out why it fails for you and not for us.
It is almost certainly a problem with your local or remote setup.

Since you don't even say which versions of cygwin, rxvt, telnet
(Cygwin or Windows?) or emacs you are using, or what your TERM or stty
settings are, I don't think any more "me too" or "me neither" replies
on this thread will help to pin it down.
