I've used Cygwin for several years now, and have read this mailing list
for quite some time. When I encountered the rsync problem, I searched
mailing lists as well as Google to find the solution, couldn't find a
definitive answer, and eventually found one myself that worked, so I
thought I'd post it (as many other people had reported similar problems
in the archives) in order to help.
I almost didn't email the list with this solution because I couldn't
remember whether or not to include the output of cygcheck as an
attachment or as part of the body. I looked on the mailing list webpage
on cygwin.com, and couldn't see any info, so I decided to put it in the
body. I should have looked further, but I figured it wouldn't be a big
deal. Of course, I chose the wrong way, and got flamed. I now know the
right way.
Anyway, I hope that my simple patch can help someone else in the future,
and if the additional body of my message bothered anyone, I apologize.
