Thanks for reporting this. I only opened the files and
apparently the title page does not have this problem.
I've updated the PDF on the website and will try to get
a new cygwin-doc together in the next few days.

(The problem, by the way, was apparently because TeX will
not generate missing fonts for PDF output, only PS. So 
after I made a PS version the PDF generation worked. Weird.)
