I notice you're behind one step on the cygwin package.  I don't think
that's a contributor but you should update.

I don't see anything obviously wrong with your terminal settings or
related environment variables and there aren't any collisions with other
3rd party apps.  I did notice you had LANG set to "en_US.ISO-8859-1"
while I have "C.UTF-8".  I didn't find changing this made any difference
for me but maybe it will for you.
