Shift-Left-click pastes fine. I copied the information out of an rxvt
terminal (Cygwin updated yesterday).
C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -fn "Lucida Console-12" -sr -bg black -fg
grey -sl 1000 -cr red -vb -e bash --login
As a shortcut starts fine with the DOS box disappearing quickly.
Hope this helps,
Alistair.
