Karjala, just wanted to make sure you have seen this page:

http://katastrophos.net/andre/blog/?p=19

And installed via Cygwin's Setup.exe the dependencies (for both rsync
and rdiff-backup):

Devel/
  autoconf
  automake
  binutils
  gcc
  make
  patchutils
Interpreters/
  python
Web/
  wget

I just got rdiff-backup running under cygwin a few days ago. I used
the specific version of librsync listed on that web page,
http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/librsync/librsync-0.9.7.tar.gz
