xterm doesn't send those keycodes in its default configuration with

send the same codes as the equivalent keys on the small cursor and

Thanks for the reference, Andy. In any case, emacs should be smart
enough to deal with and/or control the keycodes xterm sends, and
apparently it is able to do so on other platforms. Also, according to
the OP, emacs 21.2 used to be able to do it on cygwin. So I hope
someone can figure out why it doesn't work any more. The problem occurs
in rxvt-native and in mintty as well as in xterm. It also occurs in a
windows console running bash (with CYGWIN=tty). So I still come back to
thinking that something has changed in a cygwin package that provides
terminal support, and we need to find out how to make emacs work with
that change.
