Right. I got the same when I tried, that's why I mentioned making
comint recognize that plink is prompting for a password/passphrase so
it treats it differently. Perhaps that would not solve the problem
though. Plink works for me with certificate authentication and
pageant running (so it doesn't prompt for anything).

Right, the Cygwin version only supports tty and X. I know of no plans
to make it support the native Windows GUI.

Maybe (line end characters perhaps). Or maybe the way that plink
reads its password is not compatible with the indirection of running
a shell within Emacs.
