That I already knew, and it's indeed fixed by making tcsh your default
shell over on Cygwin.  I can't do that in the case I mentioned since I
still haven't been able to convince our AD administrators to fill the
respective fields.

The interesting part is why it seems to depend on the client while
accessing the same server, all on the same version of Cygwin (login
isn't involved anyway).  Cygwin clearly has the /dev/tty file present,
but for some reason it's not accessible in any way when that happens.
