Sadly, even the oldest cygwin1.dll snapshot (from 7/30/11) seems to have this 
issue. There is a pointer on the emacs lists (for MacOS) that says I should 
recompile with #define DONT_REOPEN_PTYS to avoid the "inappropriate ioctl for 
device" problem. I was hoping to avoid recompiling emacs but I guess I'll give 
that a try. :)

Thanks for the ideas Ken.

Jack
