Hi there Egor!
AG> Subj? For russian language ANSI-codepage is cp1251 (win1251), OEM - cp866
AG> (dos866). But in unix systems used another one - koi8-r. Koi8-r is de-facto
AG> standart for E-mail and News messages. Therefore will be good if Cygwin
AG> console will receive possibility to use some different from "CYGWIN
AG> codepage=oem" and "CYGWIN codepage=ansi". May be "CYGWIN codepage=none"?
AG> P.S.: In cygwin beta 19 and 20 time was no such problem. Simple run
AG> "chcp.com 20866" at bash-console and you can relax with koi8-r codepage. :-)

Thanx for help. But I've just try this recipe and nothing win. :-(
I use this version of Cygwin:
iggy:~$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.0 IGGY 1.3.10(0.51/3/2) 2002-02-25 11:14 i686 unknown
Am I need to update? To which version?
