I've setup rxvt, and take the default term settings. 
This is the latest cygwin as of today, Vista host.

when I do man x, I get odd characters: mis-interpreted control characters. 
The default cygwin terminal works fine. 

for example, if I do
man man

I get this kind of stuff (the characters â (letter a with a hat on) pops up a lot

SYNOPSIS
       man  [−acdfFhkKtwW]
