Thanks, Earnie. I've often seen the recommendation to set CYGWIN32 to
include 'tty,' but whenever I've tried it (from within bash or in .bashrc)
it caused strange behavior (which will remain unspecified in this message -
no time to go back and recreate it). Setting this enviroment variable
outside of bash to tty seems to work. I haven't had a chance to try it on
the perl Configure yet, but am optimistic!
Best,
John V.

You must `SET CYGWIN32=%CYGWIN32% tty' before starting bash. Setting
tty after starting bash will leave the parent process in notty and the
child in tty and you can get some strange results this way.
