tramp (2.1.2); Have not been able to use cygwin + emacs + tramp to connect.

[Spencer Thiel]

I have not had any luck connecting with tramp + emacs on WinXP.  If
you look below, you can see that the cmd.exe shell is trying to
intrepret commands that are intended for the remote shell.  I suspect
that the intial connection command (i.e. \c "ssh -t -t
address@hidden") is not getting sent to cmd.exe.  I have tried
switching to a local bash shell, but tramp is unable to connect to the
local shell.  This is tramp straight out of the box.  I have tried
using multiple methods.

When I use sshx (which is recommended for my setup), I get this
information in the tramp widow:
ssh foo.bu.edu -l foobar -e none -t -t /bin/sh; echo "Tramp"
"connection" "closed"; sleep 1
tcgetattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device

Any advice would be appreciated.

emacs-version's value is "21.3.1", tramp-version's value is "2.1.2"
