* If I run cygwin.bat directly from Start/Run..., it works fine. (I mean 
I can start vim, exit, and echo is OK).  (I don't have CYGWIN or TERM 
set in the native Windows system or user environment)

* If I start a "CMD" shell, do "set CYGWIN=tty" and then start bash, and 
from within bash, run vim, again it's OK (by above defn.)

* However, if I start CMD, and within it, directly run as one command 
"env CYGWIN=tty bash", then when I exit vim, bash's echo is turned off.

I suspect this last emulates the setup when login forks off bash (but 
sorry, pure wild-assed guess here).

Cygcheck output attached.
