For termcap, you should copy the "cygwin" and "linux" entries out of
the /etc/termcap on your cygwin box, and replace the (apparently buggy)
entries in /usr/share/misc/termcap on the FreeBSD box. Run "cap_mkdb
/usr/share/misc/termcap" when you're done. That should make FreeBSD
use cygwin's updated termcap entries. If this fixes your problem, use
send-pr to file a FreeBSD bug on it. If it doesn't, file a bug with
cygwin, asking them to update their own termcap entry :)
