TERM=cygwin is correct. But it also needs to be exported.
TERM=cygwin
export TERM
or
export TERM=cygwin
Either works in bash. Also be sure the file is not DOS text mode
(contains <CR><NL> pairs). If it does, then the actual value of TERM is
being set to cygwin<CR> which is not a valid terminal name.
If these doesn't fix the problem, then I have not a clue.
