Again, I cannot recreate this symptom.
How up-to-date are your other Cygwin packages? There have been termcap
and terminfo updates in the past several weeks. Did you install them?
Have you looked at you ~/.vimrc file lately to see if there's anything
odd there? Perhaps clearing your ~/.viminfo would help? Do you use the
"tty" option in your CYGWIN environment variable? I don't, so that
could conceivably be a source of the dissimilarity between Vim's
behavior on our respective systems.

There is no reason you should have to endure this misbehavior.

I surely would not put up with it.
