Hi, when I read this, I wondered whether this bug could be fixed: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=513 but it isn't. I had later found (and reported to cygwin-developers) that the terminal response to terminal queries (like cursor position request or device attribute request) is placed in the wrong buffer because there are different objects (descriptors?) for stdin and stdout, so the response would stay in Nirvana and never reach the application. (And it used to work in CYGWIN=tty mode because curiously, in that case, the console handles would have been shared for stdin and stdout.) Since you seem to have just looked at this area of the console code, could you give it check?
