Thanks for reporting that.  I've uploaded a new test release.  Would you
mind trying it out?

wget \

http://home.comcast.net/~andrex2/cygwin/unison/unison2.40/unison2.40-2.40.61-2.tar.bz2
tar -C/ -xf unison2.40-2.40.61-2.tar.bz2

then run unison-2.40 as before, and let me know if that works.

Andrew.
