Lack of prompts in bzr

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Please read the FAQ and check existing issues before creating a new issue.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install cygwin
2. Install bazaar (through the windows installer)
3. Install puttycyg

What is the expected result?  What happens instead?
bzr uncommit does not display a prompt asking for the approval of changes, 
nor does it allow input (thus bzr remains unresponsive and a bzr break-lock 
from another non-cygterm terminal is required). bzr pull does not display 
pull phases. All of this works correctly when running cygwin from cmd.exe. 

PutTTYcyg version: 20091228
Cygwin version: CYGWIN_NT-6.0 <hostname> 1.7.1(0.218/5/3) 2009-12-07 11:48 
i686 Cygwin
Windows version: Vista SP2

I exported the registry key and looked through it; it only contains saved 
sessions (which shouldnt affect cygterm) and keys. If it's really necessary 
I will scrub it of all personal information and post it, but don't expect 
there to be much remaining.

PuTTYcyg only works with Cygwin programs which use a UNIX-y terminal API.  It 
does not work with 
Windows programs which expect and use the Windows Console device and API.  See 
the FAQ for more 
details.

I should also mention that the Cygwin version of bazaar (install from Cygwin's 
setup.exe) should work fine.

Thanks, that does indeed fix it.
