I am having the same problem now, after upgrading
to cygwin 1.5.19-4 from 1.5.18-1.

I am working with the Eclipse IDE on Windows which uses cygwins cvs and ssh in
the background

cvs with ssh works fine in my installation, if i reinstall cygwin 1.5.18-1.

So, going back to cygwin 1.5.18-1 is my current workaround.
