The output of stat of my testfile on the box with cygwin 1.7 is

stat testfile
  File: `testfile'
  Size: 1048576         Blocks: 1024       IO Block: 65536  regular file
Device: bcdb6416h/3168494614d   Inode: 27303072741079683  Links: 1

Here (http://pastebin.com/m6c414439) is the output of my rerunning my
tests against the server with cygwin 1.7 with the  --itemize-changes
and -vv rsync options.
