I was wrong.

Only some improvement using the cygwin1-20110829.dll.bz2 snapshot.
Problems still exist when trying to check in a file with RCS on this
Windows share.

Annotated test example below.  Apologies for not being brief.

Any ideas appreciated.  However, progress has been made with the 0829
snapshot, at least I can create files on this share......



# 1 - Comments: Verify the version of cygwin1.dll:

    Fri Sep 16 10:24:20 (kchristian AT laptop-pc) /cygdrive/z>uname -a
    CYGWIN_NT-5.1 laptop-pc 1.7.10s(0.251/5/3) 20110829 15:53:50 i686 Cygwin
