I've noticed that this misbehavior occurs more frequently these days: ctrl-c'ing some tasks (tail, less, maybe a few others) ends up with the terminal settings all scrogged up, and requires you to "blindly" type in 'reset' (or stty sane) to fix it. It's really rather annoying, but I don't know what exactly caused this to start happening. It's possible it is unique to mintty, since I /think/ I started seeing this more frequently about the time I drifted to regularly using mintty more than rxvt-unicode...and I don't think I see this behavior in urxvt.
