Sorry, I can't reproduce this on Vista or 7 either. Hippo looking happy. Further to Chris's suggestion of trying Cygwin.ico, does it make a difference if you copy the hippo elsewhere? Also, did the shortcut work with mintty-0.5.4? (0.5.5 uses a different Windows function to load the icon, but it's not immediately obvious why that might upset the hippo.)
