I know you've looked at the environment differences on your machine
between a plain cmd and one under bash.  How about comparing yours
under bash with your colleague's?  Also, does the shell matter?  Does
it happen for you with tcsh, pdksh, or zsh too?  This might provide
some insight.
Almost forgot.  One more thing and probably the most important.  Is this
reproducible with the upcoming Cygwin 1.7 release?

I installed 1.7 I tried with other shells you mentioned I sourced my colleagues enviornement variables to my bash

None made a difference! :(. I started suspecting my PC more, though
I'm not sure how to pin the problem down. Any clues?

With cgf's help and a good look at your cygcheck output, I believe I was able to reproduce something like your problem. If I'm right, then you want to remove 'tty' from your CYGWIN environment variable. Make sure you exit *all* Cygwin processes, including services, before firing up bash again and invoking 'cnd' from there to test.
