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
("Frédéric L. W. Meunier") as the test input.

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).
