Yep, both in mintty and xterm. And actually I can reproduce it in the Cygwin console too, by entering the offending keycode manually. After pressing 'Escape [ 2 4', the prompt looks like this: (arg: 24) Pressing ';' at this point causes bash to hang. The issue only shows up on Cygwin 1.7, not 1.5. Since their bash versions are almost identical, I'd suspect it's to do with the newer readline on 1.7.
