You were just recently posting in the thread where this came up before: <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-10/threads.html#00188> and <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-10/msg00202.html>. Specifically, the default Cygwin prompt (PS1) contains characters that set the title so anything you do that doesn't involve changing PS1 will have no effect -- or more precisely, your echo command above does set the title for a few milliseconds, until the next prompt overwrites it. (In your rxvt example, you aren't starting a login shell and thus /etc/profile isn't sourced and PS1 isn't set, which is presumably why it works there.)
