If I open my regular Cygwin/XTerm [1] and type the command as you see
below (What you see is what I have typed) it reports the stash
correctly.

,---- From regular Cygwin/Xterm 
| $ git stash show -p stash@{0}
| diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
| index ce419c1..7183545 100644
| --- a/Makefile
| +++ b/Makefile
`----

It does seem like Emacs is messing up before handing over things.

That said, let me do some more debugging before I follow it up with
Cygwin folks.
