From the cygwin-1.7.5 release announcement:

- Support DEC Backarrow Key Mode escape sequences (ESC [ ? 67 h, ESC [ ? 67 l) in Windows console.

(The first one switches to ^H. You'll need to set stty erase accordingly.)

That's a different issue. The OP's problem is a conflict with MKS, particularly with environment variables both MKS and Cygwin use to define a working terminal setting.
