In case no one has been helpful for you yet...

This is detailed at 
http://cygwin.com/cvs.html
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-03/msg00500.html

1. Make sure you have installed the necessary packages
(cvs, openssh, gcc, etc.)
2. Set CVSROOT with the following command:
'export
CVSROOT=:pserver:[email-masked]:/cvs/src'
3. Type 'cvs login' The passwd is "anoncvs"
4. (Optional) create a special directory to download
and build in 'mkdir /oss' and 'cd /oss'
5. Type 'cvs checkout winsup' winsup is all the cygwin
source (dll, tools, setup.exe) I think you have to
download it all, not just setup.exe. If you did step
4,
this will create a hierarchy in /oss. Setup.exe is 
/oss/src/winsup/cinstall
5. Build the whole source once: 'mkdir /oss/bld'
'cd /oss/bld'
'/oss/src/configure'
'make' (long time passes)
'cd i686-pc-cygwin/winsup/cinstall/setup.exe'
To change something, edit the files in
/oss/src/winsup/cinstall, then type 'make' again in
/oss/bld/i686-pc-cygwin/winsup/cinstall
