       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
       Here's your problem.

Cygwin Configuration Diagnostics
Current System Time: Fri Apr 30 12:19:26 2010

Windows XP Professional Ver 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3

Path:	C:\Program Files\CollabNet Subversion Client
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

and here.  You're using a native Win32 version of subversion instead
of the Cygwin version, which, btw., you have installed and is much
newer:

subversion           1.6.11-1

Also keep in mind that /usr/bin/vi as well as /usr/bin/vim are Cygwin
*symlinks*, pointing to /usr/bin/vim-nox.exe.  I doubt that the native
subversion in C:\Program Files\CollabNet Subversion Client actually
understands Cygwin symlinks.
