Odd command line recall problem

Latest cygwin64 release as of posting on Windows 7x64
GNU bash, version 4.1.11(2)-release
Running in the cygwin terminal (C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe -i
/Cygwin-Terminal.ico )
The several commands I use all recall correctly using the up-arrow key. That
is, I type a command, it executes, I can recall it via up-arrow. Duplicate
commands are collapsed to one command.
However, this command seems to disappear from the history:
*tac gman.out | gawk -f ../../findStuckPestJobs.awk*
Immediately after issuing the command, up-arrow brings back the command
prior to the tac... command.
Further experimentation shows, for instance, that a simple
*tac --help*
command disappears also. Issuing a history command within the shell doesn't
list it!
cygwin problem? Or is this a bash problem?
