rsync hanging at "generate_files phase=1"

Hello all,
I am experiencing a (consistent, reproducible) condition whereby rsync
is hanging indefinitely at the following stage :
generate_files phase=1
The condition does not occur if --dry-run is specified - only when the
run is "for real". Finally, i can scp the files without problems, so
it is not a general connection issue, nor is it a problem with
permissions (everything is running via sudo in any case).
The pertinent info :

As you might imagine, i'm inclined to believe it's got something to do
with rsync on Cygwin. Of course, there's the obligatory "it worked
fine for a few days", which it did, and (of course) i changed nothing
on either end.
Any insight would be more than welcome. I'm happy to provide any
further information as necessary.
As a side-note, i've been using rsync as part of our backup strategy
for about half a year now, and this is the only problem i've
encountered since we've gone into production. I'd say that's a pretty
solid track record so far. :)
