Brian, what makes you think this is a Cygwin problem? To me, if it
works Cygwin->Cygwin and Cygwin->Solaris but not Cygwin->Linux, then
it's not likely that a change on the Cygwin side is going to help, IMO.
FWIW, this worked for me Cygwin->Cygwin from bash and from rxvt without
tty set for either attempt.
