Subject: Cannot get ^Z to suspend a program

I am using cygwin under windows xp pro and under windows 2000 pro, and
cannot get the ^Z to suspend a program that I have opened.  note that I
normally use tcsh, but I also experience the same problem using bash...

^C will kill the program without any problem

if I type & after a program name, then it is also successful in putting the
program into the background


I have tried the following to diagnose the problem, but have been
unsuccessful:

if I type stty -a I get:
speed 38400 baud; rows 33; columns 90; line = 0;
intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^H; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>; eol2 =
<undef>;
start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; rprnt = ^R; werase = ^W; lnext = ^V; flush
= ^O;
min = 1; time = 0;

the following in the output of the 'bindkey' command:
"^Z"           ->  tty-sigtsusp


I have tried setting the environment variable CYGWIN to tty and also "tty",
but that doesn't seem to do anything
