The "winsup" is an alias that checks out multiple modules, and this does not work with -d. If you use an actual path instead of a module name (i.e. "co -d try src/winsup") then you'll successfully get the winsup dir under try/ -- but this is probably not what you want, as it does not include the other modules necessary to actually build Cygwin like toplevel, newlib, config, libiberty, etc. (aka naked-winsup.)
