Not obviously, no.  I have the latest Cygwin DLL and NAV updated itself 
just today even.  I have no trouble using "tar" on a file I had.  Of 
course, I'm on W2K.  The results of strace might help locate the problem
though, assuming it's Cygwin-based.  Disabling NAV while you run tar or
scp would help pinpoint if the problem is NAV.
