CYGWIN is empty:

$ echo $CYGWIN

I typed it manually and it is misspelled in my message, it should be
...
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot open directory .../CVS/myproj/Attic: Not a
directory
...

I'm using cygwin on two different boxes (at home and at work) and on
both have the same thing: "cvs co -r" wants Attic directory exist in the
repository module. Only if i manually create Attic in the repository module
(just cd .../CVS/myproj and mkdir Attic) then "cvs co -r mytag myproj"
works right. The same happens with all my local projects, even with
newly created dummy project for testing this exact situation.

Best regards,
Alexei
