Actually this is with the Tortoise "Explorer" plugin when it uses the
cygwin or other third party ssh programs. I assume because it is
using the same C library.

Pardon my ranting - finally after many years eclipse got so I could
have ssh2/cygwin support in the eclipse CVS module, and now I am
having to revisit the exact same set of problems now that subversion
is happening :) Subversion in general is a fabtastic improvement on CVS.

I am now being asked by my empoyer to convert to subversion (I have
wanted to for a while) I will try to get them to donate some $$ to
eclipse and subversion projects. I myself donate to debian every
time I install it :).

At least now things are starting to work with the ssl/apache server,
though the cygwin subversion client has some bugs with the
.svn/entries file permissions handling on windows. Now I have to
generate ssl client keys for all the developers ...
