Case-Sensitive Meta-Key Input

Hi,
I've noticed that some of my Vim mappings that use Meta-Key (in the
ESC-prefixed form) in combination with an upper-case letter are not
working. Apparently, if the shift key is down when I type
ALT-<someAlphaKey> the sequence read by the application always
contains a lower-case letter--in other words, the shift key's state
is ignored in generating the ESC- sequence.
I've attached the obligatory "cygcheck -s -r -v" output as a plain text file.
Is there a way to achieve case-sensitive Meta/ALT input that I'm
unaware of? Is there a reason why it's difficult to accomplish under
Cygwin? Is it just an oversight? A bug?
Thanks.
