I booted my Sidux LiveCD on the Windows system, and ran rsync 2.6.9 to fetch
the same set of files, and got the same error messages as mentioned above. So I
don't think it has anything to do with Cygwin.

The files I'm copying are many gigabytes each; I tried some smaller files (in
the 2-5Mb range) and they went across fine. So this seems to only happen with
really big files. I'll keep experimenting and see if I can find a definite
cutoff size. (Something tells me it's gonna be the infamous 2Gb or 4Gb.)

Also, while still booted into Sidux, I upgraded to rsync 3.0.0 and tried my
original file transfer again. This fixed the problem. So hurry up with the
Cygwin port of 3.0.0!  :-D
