If the client were running on a unix machine, I'd say that the "ISIG" and/or
"ICANON" flags of the tty control structure are not cleared (thus making
the local terminal handler interpret ctrl-c and generate a SIGINT).

As this is Cygwin, I have no idea, never used this, and I have no idea
whether they have POSIX tty "things" (POSIX termios structure, and
underlying logic).
