I also see this behavior.
It was suggested I create a .bashrc file (echo "LANG=en_US; export LANG" >>
~/.bashrc), but this didn't work the next time I ran rxvt.
Hopefully somebody will see us and help out.

I've setup rxvt, and take the default term settings.
This is the latest cygwin as of today, Vista host.
when I do man x, I get odd characters: mis-interpreted control characters.
The default cygwin terminal works fine.
for example, if I do
man man
I get this kind of stuff (the characters â (letter a with a hat on) pops
up a lot
