This solution is problematic as the Unisons avail with Cygwin are beta 
versions 2.9.2 or 2.10.2 whereas the latest stable unison is 2.9.1. 
Normally this wouldn't be a problem except these versions will not run 
with a 2.9.1 version at the other end (Unison seems somewhat unique in 
that regard - requiring the exact same version at both ends). And it's 
simply not always possible to control what version is available at the 
other end.
