Update, I just pulled another copy of the repo onto my windows box and
applied the patch to that copy and it worked!
Any reason why it wouldn't work on a repo that darcs check says is
consistent? Any way to make the failing repo work properly?

To be clear, I can produce two different errors. When the file gets mangled
by scp, I get a "bad patch bundle" error as you suspect. However, when I
follow the procedure you describe, I get:
darcs failed: Error applying patch to recorded!
darcs check tells me that the repo is consistent.

I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised if your mailer did end-of-
line conversion on attachments.
Please do all of the following steps:
- remount all of your Cygwin directories in binary mode;
- run ``darcs check'' on your repository;
- scp the patch to your Windows box;
- gzip -d;
- md5sum patchfile, and compare it to the hash on the Unix box;
- darcs apply.
Now I'm not convinced it will solve your problem, as I'm afraid that
the damage has already been done: the patches on the repository might
have been incorrectly converted earlier on. In that case, you'll need
to discard your repository on the Windows box and fetch a new copy.
