Yes, it does.  So far once vanishing a frame, that is alive but
is iconified or hidden behind other frames, from a Windows desktop
is the only means to make `raise-frame' raise the frame to the top.
Another way is:

(defadvice raise-frame (around make-it-work (&optional frame) activate)
;;                      ^^^^^^
  "Make it work on Cygwin."
  (unless (eq frame (selected-frame))
    (make-frame-invisible frame)
    (make-frame-visible frame)))

I found it through trial and trial and trial ... and error. ;)
