I have this. However, my data files are on an encrypted partition that gets 
mounted as "i:", and I can access in cygwin via /i or /mnt/i. I don't really 
want to keep a tmp directory on this partition, but it looks like emacs is 
trying with its "i:/tmp/cvs12..."

Nope, it's on i:.

This seems like a good choice, but I'lve always had a block when it comes to 
vi, and emacs looks like over kill. I can get by with cvs commit -m 'foo' 
for the time being!
