This has been working as expected without 'fix' because bash
calls select() rather than read() when it waits for user input.
The problem is in console read() and select() has been working.

Moreover, the problem is only in console read() while pty does
not have.

What do you mean by "reset LINES/COLUMNS"? I am not sure what
is the behaviour diffrence in Linux and cygwin you mentioned.
