I reported this upstream, and received this response: 
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.bash.bugs/8315

Basically, ~/.inputrc settings are parsed only once, while stty settings are 
ignored in readline 4.x, reparsed for every command (thus overriding 
~/.inputrc) in readline 5.0, and user-settable in the upcoming readline 5.1 
whether stty settings are reparsed or ignored for every command.  Readline 5.1 
is still in alpha, and while I have tried building it for cygwin, I have yet to 
work out all the bugs.  So until then, if you want ~/.inputrc to change the 
default meaning of a character that is also assigned to a terminal function 
(check "stty -a" for those characters), you have to make stty and ~/.inputrc 
agree on what the key will do.
