Ok, I've set it in the main windows environment. Now from CDM.EXE 
prompt, CYGWIN is already set.

Ok, done this. Never had problems, because I haven't do any ssh to my 
machine since I've switched to rxvt.

That's my fault !!! Now it's working perfectly :D

Oh yeah, I've red /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rxvt-20050409.README and found 
mention about the font "Lucida ConsoleP".
I've downloaded from http://home.online.no/~aageli/luconP.ttf, installed 
in Windows, and run a shortcut with:

C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -bg black -fg white -si -sk -sw -sr -sl 65535 -tn 
rxvt-cygwin-native -fn "Lucida ConsoleP-22" -ls -e /usr/bin/bash --login 
-rcfile ~/.profile

Now mc is correctly displayed, but
pstree -p
is not drawen correctly (nor it was before....) !!!
