Are the files on NTFS?
Can you give some more detail about the CygWin installation?
Whetherver you use ntsec, release number of cygwin and rsync... (to 
include al this you can attach the output of 'cygcheck -s')

BTW: latest packages are cygwin-1.3.22-1 (which afair defaults to ntsec) 
and rsync-2.5.6-1
