Differences between Cygwin and Win CVS client

Hi,
I have two versions of the CVS client installed on a WinNT box here:

1) cvs.exe that comes with WinCVS 1.3 (cvs.exe version is 1.11.1.3)
2) cvs.exe that comes with Cygwin (cvs.exe version is 1.11)

Now, when I check out a project from our repository (which is a Linux
box running Debian) using the Cygwin cvs.exe and then do a "cvs up"
using the WinCVS cvs.exe a lot of files are marked "Locally modified"
although I haven't touched them.

When I do a diff on the files marked as modified I don't see any.
I configured WinCVS to check out text files with Unix EOLs so that
doesn't seem to be the problem.

Does someone have an idea what might be causing these phantom 
modifications?


Thanks,
Christian Schmitt
