No, I am using the xemacs installed from the cygwin installer. The 
precise version is: "XEmacs 21.4 (patch 20) \"Double Solitaire\" [Lucid] 
(i686-pc-cygwin, Mule) of Fri Dec 15 2006 on vzell-de" and I am able to 
C-c C-c to interrupt a process in shell-mode. This does not work with 
gnu emacs 21.3.50.1 nor 21.2.x. Anyone else seeing this or have a fix?

The main reason I tried to switch is because I wanted to run "vc-svn.el" 
or VC support for subversion. This signals problem is now the major 
hurdle for me.
