CygWin currently doesn't support 64 bit files at all, so it's completely
normal if cygwin-compiled rsync has "problems" over 2Gb...

See the TO-DO list:
http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin/cygwin-todo.cgi?20010220.112145
Or search the mailing list:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-10/msg00889.html

They basically say: "there's no current support for 64 bit file lenghts,
patch are welcome as long as they don't break anything"

C ya
