This might be your problem.  If you installed Cygwin to use UNIX line
endings, then your Windows cvs.exe is creating files with \r\n for an
EOL and your Cygwin cvs.exe is creating files with a \n EOL.  A file
checked out by one EXE will always look modied to the other.

There are two possible solutions to this.  The first is to not share
sandboxes between the two different CVS executables.  The other is to
reinstall your Cygwin to use Windows EOLs and maybe recompile you
Cygwin CVS executable.
