I have had problems with cygwin doing staircasing - that might be related.
But I hadn't paid much attention to vttest on cygwin - I seem to recall that
it did not build (but see that the current version of cygwin does that much).
I'll have to compile xterm with traces to see whether it is receiving the
proper data.
