What output exactly are you seeing?  When I try to resume a Vim session, 
every key press is printed in reverse video rather than acting as a 
motion command (e.g. pressing jjj overwrites the first line of text in 
the Vim window with "jjj" rather than moving down three lines).

In fact, resuming other applications such is also problematic.  If I 
background a "less" process (or a "man" command which implicitly invokes 
less), it dies when I try to resume it.

Are you also using the default Cygwin/DOS ANSI console?
