Two possible culprits here:

1. as you say, some other process might be tampering with the .tmp
file. Very likely a virus scanner of some sort. We've seen that
before.

2. it's dangerous to run the svn commandline binary in cygwin; it's not
a native cygwin program, but rather a "true" win32 console application.
Don't mix and match universes here: we've seen lots of random problems
when people do that. Run a *cygwin*-compiled svn client in cygwin, and
the win32 console client in the win32 console.
