You should be able to use Putty by setting up your CVS_RSH environment
variable without needing cygwin. Of course, you would need to download
Putty and maybe Pagent as well, but neither of them require cygwin.

That is something to address with the cygwin and/or OpenSSH folks as it
is outside the scope of CVS dependencies.
