Not being entirely clueless and with my unix head on I did (from the bash shell) export CYGWIN=tty bash xemacs -nw. With hindsight I can understand why this does not suffice, and adding set CYGWIN=tty to cygwin.bat does indeed fix things. So thanks for your efficacious (though a tad unfriendly) advice.
