I've run into this problem as well on Windows 2000 after my upgrade yesterday. I'm getting around it by unsetting HOME in /etc/profile (as the first line), so /etc/profile will do what it has been doing in the past (important for 1st time users on our team). A side effect, I'm fairly certain, my

Setting CYGWIN=tty did solve the C-c mapping. C-SPC and C-h remain, however. I also noticed that C-@ is broken. I also get the very same errors (C-SPC, C-h and C-@ are broken) under Linux (Suse 8.0 I think) using Emacs (Version 23.n) in a ssh-window. I think that this is an emacs problem and not a
