Hmm... no I'm not sure :-). I am going to try with CYGWIN=tty set in the 
registry (ala Control Panel->System->Advanced->E10t Variables)... that 
seems to work for "on the glass" sessions but I will need to restart 
sshd to test those, and I'm currently using some of those sessions.

Seems to work on *one* computer, anyway.

Thanks...
