I'm a bit puzzled now... The reason is that a flag called
'console_flag' is not set. I've grepped the code but found that it is
set only in linux specific files and in rxvt.c. There is also no description
what this flag should contain - obviously anything different
than zero will do.

It seem that this is not related to Cygwin but to some decision made
at some point that only Cygwin and rxvt support terminal != "dumb".

Or am I dumb ?! :)

Thanks! :)
