Is this the thread? http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2004-December/016478.html I think that this boiled down to a CYGWIN issue (the thread looks like it dies without resolution in pipermail). Maybe it's this? http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2004-November/015950.html This thread seemed to die as well with nothing conclusive.
