Hi Brian,
I did the same and the problem I found was that librsync was in the
wrong place.
I fixed by in cygwin adding a symlink between /usr/lib and wherever
librync kept its files... or vice versa. 
or maybe I just copied the librync files into the main cygwin lib
directory.
Anyway, I found that part of the FAQ pretty irrelevant. after I got
librsync in the right place it worked.
however I still haven't figured out how to get ssh keys to work on a
FAT32 filesystem. NTFS should be fine. FAT32 doesn't allow ssh to check
the permissions on the filesystem. I need to solve this and will work on
it closer to Christmas - I am busy building the server and speccing out
a web frontend to rdiff-backup now
