I've run into similar problems with "top" when ssh'ing from Cygwin to
Debian 3.1:

    http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2005-10/msg00453.html

I can't seem to find my post in the Debian archives...


So far, no identification of the root cause of the problem.  The
work-around is to use the rxvt shell in Cygwin rather than Bash.


HTH,

David
