Yeah, come to think of it that one also stuck out to me after I sent the
mail. I've updated my cygport and associated artifacts to include those
dependencies:
https://github.com/crd477/cygports/tree/main/rsync
Here's an update diff of the features and capabilities, reformatted and
sorted for easier comparison:

I think the diffs after "19c20" above should be safe to ignore as the
release notes explain them:
" - Renamed configure's `--enable-simd` option to `--enable-roll-simd`
and added
the option `--enable-roll-asm` to use the new asm version of the
code. Both
are x86_64/amd64 only.
- Renamed configure's `--enable-asm` option to `--enable-md5-asm` to avoid
confusion with the asm option for the rolling checksum. It is also
honored
even when openssl crypto is in use. This allows: normal MD4 & MD5,
normal
MD4 + asm MD5, openssl MD4 & MD5, or openssl MD4 + asm MD5 depending
on the
configure options selected.
- Made SIMD & asm configure checks default to "no" on non-Linux hosts
due to
various reports of problems on NetBSD & macOS hosts. These were also
tweaked to allow enabling the feature on a host_cpu of amd64 (was only
allowed on x86_64 before)."
Thanks...
