that looks suspiciously like ANSI (colour) escape codes. is your terminal setting correct?
$ echo $TERM xterm
hmm, try setting TERM to vt100 or something, as that's quite a simple terminal type and doesn't do anything fancy other than bold and underline. of course, if your terminfo/termcap stuff knows about cygwin, you could set TERM=cygwin instead.

export TERM=vt100 had no effect.
Where is the terminfo/termcap stuff?
Could it be significant that I installed and am using rxvt shell? However, when I use the default cygwin terminal I see the same thing.
