I have submitted the following bug (and a few others) at 

 http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=513

Whereas the cygwin terminal (in the Windows DOS box) normally 
does not respond to Report Cursor Position (ESC [ 6 n) at all, 
the CYGWIN=tty configured terminal does respond, but only after 
the next keyboard input. This is wrong and confuses programs that 
try to use this feature; response should be immediate.

Kind regards,
Thomas Wolff
