I'd be amazed if this all works seamlessly. Nevertheless, remember that 
CVS on cygwin is only supported with binary-mounted filesystems.  If 
your default cygdrive mount is text (i.e. you installed Cygwin with "DOS 
line endings"), be sure to create a fresh binary mount for your CVS 
repository and use that as your CVSROOT.
