Search the cygwin mail list archives. I discovered a long standing issue with rsync on Cygwin that to the best of my knowledge was never resolved, it fails under certain conditions having to do with a sync error in the protocol which I believe is related to an xon/xoff error on the local pipe. I now use rsync under Linux/CentOS no problem and use SyncBack on Windows when I need this sort of functionality. Perhaps you might have better luck.
