If anyone wants a copy of the rsync.exe that I built for cygwin
with socket pairs disabled, you can fetch it at:

http://www.cs.umass.edu/~moss/rsync.exe

This solves the spin/hang issue that I was seeing with certain
large files transferring via ssh from my Windows 7 64-bit
laptop.

I posted this file for a particular requester, but he thought
others might appreciate a more public posting, so here it is.
Of course we all hope the underlying bug will be found and
fixed eventually, but this workaround has helped me and some
others for the time being ...
