I suspect this is related to an issue reported before with the hippo icon (I assume it's the one Chuck mentioned in a previous email?). I don't remember the exact details, but I remember Vista not liking the icon unless it was embedded in a dll (which Chuck subsequently uploaded). To use it, try: mintty --icon=/cygicons-hippo-vista-0.dll,10 which will get you the hippo icon.
