rsync over ssh hang issue understood

Just to back this up, we cant get basic rsync to run reliably
using cygwin either. The command being tested is run from a
FreeBSD box with the source being a cygwin box using cygwin
1.5.19-4:
rsync -av cygwin1:/testdir/ /testdir/

The result is it will randomly hang on a file, no output / error
returned just stops.

Tests to the same machine using sfu work fine.
