i also had the problem of bash not scrolling at the bottom of the
screen, and didn't see any solutions posted, so here is something quite
mangled, but seems to work.
i think the problem is that bash was not written to automatically scroll
down to the bottom of the buffer, so my solution was to write a similar
program to yours that moves the cursor to the bottom of the buffer, and
then resume bash.
see the details at http://ldt.mit.edu/consize.html
i hope it works for others
btw, chuck, thanks for your contribution; it sure is useful; i don't
know how many times i have done as cvs command and permanently lost its
output off the top of the console.
i really think that cygwin should have a link to your program!
