A quick follow-up:
On the unison.general mailing list, Mark Rogers reports that replacing
the cygwin1.dll with version 1.5.10 makes unison over ssh work again.
I also tried it (temporarily, of course), and can confirm that it works.
So SP2 does seem to break something in cygwin 1.5.11, as installing SP2
was the only change I made today.
Cheers,
Rob
