No settings in xterm of rxvt - both use ptys in my understanding and 
there are not settings to turn off using ptys! The workaround is to use 
a Windows window not an rxvt/xterm window emulator. IOW click on the 
Cygwin icon on your desktop which should run the dumb, old, crappy DOS 
window shell with bash running inside of it (Either that or start a cmd 
window and then run bash --login -i). That should work with a Windows 
oriented mysql monitor since the Windows oriented mysql monitor is using 
things like /dev/conin and /dev/conout. At least this is how I 
understand it.

Try ftp://defaria.com/mysql-4.0.15a.tar.gz. No guarantees though...
