That's it.

Do a google for 

	Embassy Trust Suite cygwin

and revel in all the reports of problems with cygwin with that thing 
installed.

See for example Dave Korn at:

	http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-05/msg00132.html

or this on:

	http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-talk/2007-q1/msg00270.html
	http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2006-05/msg00856.html

so I'm pretty sure that's it.

Ahh, the joys of Windows.

Btw, did you ever test the msys version of git

	http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/

since I suspect that it's likely to not just be faster, but also more 
robust, since there is a much thinner layer between git and windows (and 
thus hopefully many fewer complex dependencies that can go wrong).
