I've run "cat > /dev/null" under strace, and it seems that the Cygwin app
doesn't even see the accented characters. They might get filtered out in
fhandler_termios, now that I look at the strace. If it helps, the strace
output (the relevant snippet of it) is attached. I used your name

No, sorry, I don't use screen much... I find the default bash shell
marginally useful, though (mostly for large pastes; most of the time I use
xterms).
