strace: Prints lots of debugging output from Cygwin DLL internals.
strace -o outputfile rsync <rsyncoptions>
Caveat: strace is a non-Cygwin program: It does *not* understand POSIX
paths.
You can also connect to a running process: strace -p pid
gdb: Probably easier to connect to a running, hung, process. The exe must be
unstripped for this to be useful.
Once you are connected to the process, type "bt" at the gdb prompt to get
the report.
You can't use both gdb and strace simultaneously on one process

I don't think the widely complained about rsync hang would actually happen
there.
