See <http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html> and look for the
'tty' setting. If you set 'tty' before starting 'bash', you'll see the same
issue even using a plain console (cmd.exe). I'm assuming that's
what you mean when you say "from the desktop" above. Actual terminals,
rxvt, mintty, etc., will have the same behavior you saw with 'sshd'.
Currently, there is no way to support ptys and make Windows understand them
as something other than a pipe.
