I investigated and found that this is a problem from one of my old
patches to LYKeymap.c. It turns out that the HOME and END keys are
mapped to FIND and SELECT by LYStrings.c before ncurses gets to
interpret the sequence as HOME and END. I had made FIND and SELECT
null operations for Cygwin, since there are no FIND or SELECT keys
on the PC keyboard. This patch should fix it. I made it against a
2.8.5dev.2 that I had on the machine at which I was working, but I
don't think there have been any changes to the file since then.
