I have to do `unset CYGWIN' and then `reset' (without looking too close, mind you) and then I get my prompt back.  `reset' also doesn't clear the screen.  (note: reset and tset are part of ncurses).  is ncurses incompatible with `CYGWIN=tty'?  Is this supposed to happen?

You might get a better answer with better information given.  The results 
of 'uname -a' or 'cygcheck -s -r -v' for example may be significant.  I 
don't use emacs but I do use 'tty' in my CYGWIN environment variable and have 
no problems running/using 'reset'.
