I'm having trouble with pulling from cvs under 64-bit cygwin. 

I have parallel 32-bit and 64-bit cygwin installs on a Win7 Enterprise machine. 

Under 32-bit cygwin, I do this all the time: 
cvs -z3 -d:ext:lloydwood AT savi DOT cvs DOT sourceforge DOT net:/cvsroot/savi co savi-dev 

and quite happily; type password at prompt, pull files and go. 

Under 64-bit cygwin, this doesn't work; I never get a password prompt. 

I see that the cvs versions are different: 


Under 64-bit cygwin: 
$ which cvs 
/usr/bin/cvs 

$ cvs -version 

Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.23 (client/server) 

Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 

Under 32-bit cygwin 
$ which cvs 
/usr/bin/cvs 

$ cvs -version 

Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.12.13 (client/server) 

Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 


So, different versions, the cvs version under 64-bit Cygwin appears  earlier than the version under 32-bit Cygwin (but I no longer understand FSF version numbering; don't ask me about gcc 5...) but this earlier(?) version has a later year. And, unlike 32-bit, doesn't seem to work. 

Something here is very very odd, and I'd appreciate enlightenment.

thanks
