I had been investigation this last week. It didn't work with 1.5.7-1 but
works with 1.5.8-1 as well as 1.5.9-1. I believe it was this fix that
resolved the problem, since the errors usually were signal related:

- Fix hang typified by trying to execute an unknown command in zsh.
This was caused by a signal race which could have caused other strange
hangs
or odd behavior.

If the debian legal issues are ever sorted out, I might try to get scsh
made into a cygwin package.
