Noted first, this is in any case not a mintty issue as mintty updates 
the title whenever it receives the respective escape sequence. The 
scenario sounds weird, however. Is the background process continuously 
sending title escape sequences? But 'emacs &' looks like you're starting 
a GUI instance of emacs, right? So why should it?
