The legendary cygwin/rsync/ssh hang problem.  I have been tracking this for a
while now and can say that the latest cygwin install appears to have fixed the
problem on one of the setups that has consistantly failed in the past.  Have not
put the update on to any production boxes yet, but it looks promising.  From the
threads that I have read on the cygwin mailing lists, it would seem that a pipe
problem in the cygwin1.dll has been resolved (non-blocking pipes that blocked?)
The relevant cygcheck -s info:

$ cygcheck -s

Have you had a chance to further test rsync with cygwin?
I just updated cygwin on a Windows XP Pro machine and tried several times to
initiate rsync over SSH from Debian Sarge; unfortunately, the transfer still
hangs. I can use a SSH tunnel initiated from Debian and then start a sync using
the rsyncd (deamon) running on WinXP.
